Edward River, NSW 2024
OzFish Unlimited worked alongside Edward Wakool Angling Association, NSW DPI Fisheries, and the Joint Indigenous Group (JIG) to undertake the restocking and tagging of Freshwater Catfish into the Edwards-Wakool system and Barham Lakes system. The purchase of these fish has been funded through the Edward Kolety Fishing Challenge and the Recreational Fishing Trust.
Tackle Loop
Tackle Loop is OzFish’s solution to provide a home for recreational fishers’ old, unwanted, and broken gear. Working with our partners, we will take in old and discarded gear before ensuring it is recycled instead of polluting Australia’s waterways or ending up in landfill.
