Latest Projects Underway for the Adelaide Chapter
Seeds for Snapper, Adelaide – South Australia
Adelaide's metropolitan coastline has lost over 6000Ha of seagrass meadows. These meadows are a nursery ground for baby snapper and other sea life. OzFish together with leading scientists are bringing these beautiful meadows back to help our fisheries.
Port River Shellfish Restoration, Adelaide – SA
OzFish volunteers and members of the local community set out to take steps to begin the return of thriving shellfish reefs to the Port River estuary. This built on previous successful trials by the Estuary Care Foundation to return native flat oysters to the waterway.
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.
