OzFish Chapters
Our work at OzFish is fuelled by passionate communities right around Australia, working to improve habitat outcomes for generations to come.
An OzFish Chapter is a group of passionate locals, joining forces to improve habitat outcomes in their local area. Our chapter members are the eyes and ears of our waterways and are the first to know when something isn’t quite right or could do with a helping hand. It doesn’t matter if you’re new to fishing or you’ve been doing it all your life, our chapters are for everyone.
OzFish works as a ‘conduit’ between what’s happening locally and providing the right resources and support to improve habitat outcomes. We provide insurances, WHS PPE, grant writing capabilities, scientific and project management skills and connections to organisations and government agencies.
The power of passionate, everyday people should never be underestimated.

Chapter Executive Committee
Each chapter is run by an executive group, ideally 5-8 members, who all play their part in providing additional support for their local area and chapter needs.
A chapter executive is someone who is willing to put in that little bit extra. They help coordinate events, create positive relationships with local stakeholders and help identify local habitat needs and solutions for better habitat outcomes.
Does this sound like something you’d be interested in? Take a look at our chapter executive position descriptions and contact [email protected], who will connect you with your local OzFish team member.
