Are you wanting to buy a whitebait stand?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Are you wanting to get into the whitebait industry? It could cost you. More than half a dozen stands, costing up to $200,000, have come on to the market in the past few weeks. Although sold as "stands", what changes hands is a permit to fish a particular spot on a river. To read more, click here.

Are you a fan of whitebait? Is it a popular meal in your neighbourhood? How much would you be willing to pay for a whitebait permit? Let us know your thoughts in the replies below!
