hi blue, there are not any major problems with the regulations as far as i know. there is still the regulation in there about a hand spear having no more than 2 prongs which is a bit of a joke given that you can still apparently use a Hawaiian sling with multiple prongs (which is technically a spear gun). I think they should just remove the 2 prong restriction since it seems unnecessary.
otherwise, i don't think the new regs are much different to the old ones. i don't have any particular concerns about them.
we already went through the marine parks phase several years ago where we lost quite a few fishing areas. sounds like this is now happening up in your area.
cheers, glen
