From 1 February, all freshwater traps will also be required to be marked with a solid light-coloured float that is at least 15 cm in any dimension."Previously this rule only applied to traps that weren't fixed to something stationary.
Not sure why you'd need clarification, it seems pretty simple. All traps need to be identified with a solid light coloured float.

Because the idea of tieing a float to a tree is absurd.........
Why? It would help locate traps which could otherwise be lost or identify those that are unmarked. I'll bet that most of the abandoned traps were floatless and/or unmarked...
In Lake Maroon, the biggest reason for abandoned traps is the well known local who sets more than the legal limit and does not mark his traps.
