nick069 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I had a large Lungfish once 45cm, that i purchased of an LFS in sydney, they didnt give me any documentation with it, they said i didnt need it, so the fisheries deparment ended up tracking me down, took me 12 moths before i got off the hook, finally end up selling the fish, after all the hassle it caused me. Nice very clumsy but placid fish, can be hand fed, mine ate fllating pellets but loved white bait and peeled prawn nick! 22:38 ] thanks for that Justin. Very informative site. :bigsmile: ← Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZebraCat Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 why are lungfish so expensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I think it's mainly because they're a protected species that have a fairly limited legal supply, even though they are natives. Recently caught a decent one out at one of the lakes around here 1.2+m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZebraCat Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 oh ok then, very interesting. What did you do with the one you caught? how much do these normally go for anyways? juvenile ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I did the only thing you should do if you by-catch Australian lungfish, I released it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAL05T Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 SchmucK, you didnt happen to snap a pic by any chance first?? That would be a pretty impressive sight, but your right in doing the legal thing and letting it loose, not too many around so I hear Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Unfortunately no pictures of them. They're actually thriving in the lakes around here and jump when hooked and they often come up for gulps of air right next to your canoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
