Fishing, especially rock fishing, can be dangerous. Follow these basic safety tips at all times when rock fishing:
Never fish by yourself - fish in a group of at least three people and within sight of each other. If someone is washed in, one person can stay and help while the other alerts emergency services (dial 000). Mobile phone users can also dial 112 to access emergency services.
Inform others of your plans. Always let friends or family know where you are going and when you will be back.
Wear light clothing. Light clothing such as shorts and a spray jacket will let you swim easily if you are washed in. Jumpers may be heavy and difficult to take off.
Wear appropriate footwear. Cleats, sandals and sandshoes with non slip soles suit different surfaces. Use the appropriate shoes for the conditions.
Carry safety gear. Wear a life jacket or buoyancy vest. Also bring something buoyant that can be easily thrown and held onto, to help you stay afloat. Carry ropes and torches.
Never fish in exposed areas during rough or large seas. Make sure you are aware of local weather, swell and tidal conditions before going fishing. Listen to
weather forecasts or call the weather information line on 1900 937 107. Be aware that conditions may change dramatically in a short period of time.
Observe first, fish later. Spend some time (at least 30 minutes) watching your intended spot before fishing to get an idea of the conditions over a full swell/wave cycle. Wave conditions can get worse as the tide changes - you should know whether the tides are high or low and coming in or going out.
Plan an escape route in case you are washed in. Stay calm - if you are washed in, swim away from the rocks and look for a safe place to come ashore or stay afloat and wait for help to arrive.
Stay alert. Don’t ever turn your back on the sea - if the waves, weather or swell threaten your fishing spot then leave immediately.
Ask for advice from locals who know the area. They will always tell you when an area is dangerous.

钓鱼，特别是矶钓可能会很危险。矶钓时请遵从以下的基本安全贴士：
Never fish by yourself - fish in a group of at least three people and within sight of each other. If someone is washed in, one person can stay and help while the other alerts emergency services (dial 000). Mobile phone users can also dial 112 to access emergency services.
Inform others of your plans. Always let friends or family know where you are going and when you will be back.
把你的钓鱼计划告诉其他人。 总是让你的朋友和家人知道你去哪里了和你将何时回来。
Wear light clothing. Light clothing such as shorts and a spray jacket will let you swim easily if you are washed in. Jumpers may be heavy and difficult to take off.
轻装上阵。 轻装，比如shorts和spray jacket会让你被卷下去的时候游的更容易。套装可能就太重和很难脱掉。
Wear appropriate footwear. Cleats, sandals and sandshoes with non slip soles suit different surfaces. Use the appropriate shoes for the conditions.
Carry safety gear. Wear a life jacket or buoyancy vest. Also bring something buoyant that can be easily thrown and held onto, to help you stay afloat. Carry ropes and torches.
带好安全设备。 穿救生服或者浮力背心。 同时带一些有浮力，容易抛出和抓住的东西，以帮助你保持浮出水面。 带好绳子和手电筒。

不要在崎岖或大海间的空旷区域钓鱼。 在钓鱼前确保你清楚当地的天气，风浪的状况。 听天气预报或者拨打气象信息热线：1900 937 107. 注意在短时间内天气条件可能剧烈变化。

Wave conditions can get worse as the tide changes - you should know whether the tides are high or low and coming in or going out.
先观察，后钓鱼。 花最少30分钟观察你的钓点，清楚潮汐的全部周期状况后开始钓鱼。 浪潮状况可能会变坏－－你需要知道浪是否高或低，是在涨潮还是退潮。

保持警惕。千万不要北朝大海－－－如果浪潮，天气或者水面上升威胁到你的钓点，马上离开。
