OzFish invites the community to enjoy a drink and learn how they can make a real contribution to reviving the Clyde.

Whether it be estuarine species, such as the well-targeted flathead or mulloway, or heading into the upper reaches for Australian Bass – the Clyde system fishes well all year round. It’s a beautiful waterway, rich in marine life however following the Black Summer bushfire, floods and increased human pressures the waterway has been under growing stress. Fortunately, South East Local Land Services (SELLS) have been carrying out significant habitat restoration projects in the area and now you can now be part of making a genuine difference and supporting the fishery to not only survive but thrive.

The community is invited to come along to the “Revive the Clyde” evening to learn from leading scientists, fisheries and habitat experts and media personalities to get the latest info on what’s being done and how the community can take the lead. Canapés will be provided, and drinks can be purchased from the bar. Cheers to that!  Please RSVP using the link to attend and to help with catering and capacity.
