Good job, you just admitted to commiting an offense punishable by, if I'm reading it right, up to $100,000 fine or 5 years in prison. :slfg:

What to do when you catch catfish

All catfish must be killed on capture and not returned to the water alive.

Unwanted Organisms (Biosecurity Act 1993)

It is illegal to release, spread, sell or breed unwanted organisms. There is a $100,000 fine or five years imprisonment for people caught doing so.

5 years or $100,000 for not killing a fish! But they do damage the local freshwater ecosystem! :dead%fish
