Cheers Bushpig, That was quite a prompt Reply.

Hey Kerren, do you rekon we could find someone (like Mike Rose) to do a full run down on the laws as they currently stand?  Perhaps it could be at one of MSFC's monthly meetings? speaking of MSFC where do I sign up?

I will post this here as this is where it started

  1. Is it legal to consume cockles when collecting them?

There is no regulations prohibiting the consumption of cockles when collecting them. Good fishing practise suggests that the shells should be disposed of above high water mark. There are some species that such as scallops,paua and oyster that cannot be shucked below high water.

2. If so does this come off your daily limit?

Any cockles consumed will count against the daily limit.

Kezza - try contacting Mike Rose. He's the PR person for the HFOs and I am sure would be happy to source legal opinions etc in the interests of public education. He's a human being.

Good point Kerren with the shelled product seaward of the Queens Chain Rule.

I think that rule takes it a bit far. It means, if followed to the letter, you can not take the filleted shellfish to your boat to cook them or store them. However that rule applies mainly, I think, to shell fish with a minimum size as they are in an unmeasurable state once shelled and probably doesn't apply to cockles.

dam good question. I guess to be totally within the law what you eat that way should come off the daily limit.

Do you have the e-mail of that Hon officer we meet up North ? If so maybe you could e-mail him and ask
