Always check the official guide before keeping any fish. Regulations change. Natural Resources and Environment Tasmania (Fisheries Tasmania) — and, for inland trout, the Inland Fisheries Service updates its guide annually and occasionally mid-year. Fines for over-bag or undersized fish are significant.
Tasmania has two licence regimes. Inland/freshwater (trout) fishing requires a recreational angling licence for anyone aged 14 or over. Sea/saltwater line fishing for scalefish needs no licence — only specific methods (rock lobster, abalone, scallop dive, nets, set lines) require a recreational sea fishing licence. Buy an inland angling licence (IFS).
