Welcome to Scale Up
An interactive platform offered to OzFish members, with engaging modules you can complete at your own pace. It doesn’t matter if you’re new to fishing or consider yourself a seasoned angler; this material is designed for everyone.
Have you ever wondered where fish migrate to at various times of the year? How
their food webs interact, or why water quality is such an important factor at
different life cycle stages? This is what Scale Up is all about.
We’ve got a stack of info ready for OzFish members across the Country to dive straight into. We’re also in the process of forming up new ideas for module content so let us know, what do you want to see?
