25.01.2022 The OzFish Bunya Bunya Chapter is just one of our Indigenous OzFish Chapters and part of the Bunya Bunya Country Aboriginal Corporation. The group has been active for more than 14 years and became involved in OzFish soon after we first started back in 2017. We sat down with Chapter President and proud Kabi Kabi man Kerry Jones this week as part of our NAIDOC week reflection to hear what they've been up too and what NAIDOC week means to him. Check out our website for the full story. https://ozfish.org.au/2020/11/caring-for-country/ #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe #NAIDOC2020

22.01.2022 You might think it's a little crazy but... yes, you can build a fence for fish. Western Landcare NSW, Wentworth Shire Council and OzFish Unlimited Sunraysia came together through funding from NSW DPI Fisheries recreational fishing trust and our partnership with Landcare NSW to do just that. #BetterHabitatBetterFishing #murray #sunraysia #FishHabitatRestoration Recreational Fishing Alliance of NSW...

20.01.2022 With the help of NSW DPI Fisheries, we're educating tomorrow's fishers. Our OzFish Unlimited Tenterfield Chapter held a two-day fishing clinic and native bush tucker incursions for students at The Sir Henry Parkes Memorial Public School this week. Sadly the students camp was canceled due to COVID but OzFish stepped in to help out. Over the two days, Tenterfield President Harry Davey got 92 students up to date with the latest info on fish handling, knots and rigs, casting, sustainable fishing practices, and of course fish habitat. Harry and his partner Mel Bridge also personally donated a native garden to the school which the students planted out over the two days. OzFish will be back next term for some more science lessons on #fishhabitat. #FutureOzFishers right there people.

18.01.2022 It was great to be able to help out with a cod fingerling release this morning in the Lachlan River here in Cowra. We released 3000 right here in the heart of Cowra , but the river down stream got a great boost as well . So did Wyangala dam and the Belubula river at Canowindra. A total of 50,000 Cod fingerlings were released today. Big thanks to NSW DPI Fisheries and Steph Cook MP for the invite to help with this fingerling release

18.01.2022 OzFish support native fish rescue and relocation: Lachlan River 177 native Murray Cod, Golden Perch and Silver Perch are now swimming safely in the waters of Wyangala Dam after an intensive fish rescue operation. Volunteers from Inland Waterways OzFish were urgently called in to assist NSW DPI Fisheries with the relocation effort, enacted under a DPI rescue and relocation permit, after the native fish inadvertently found themselves in a precarious position and in need of a he...lping hand to ensure their survival with summer fast approaching. The operation follows numerous large-scale efforts to rescue native fish from drought affected stretches of rivers in late 2019, where OzFish volunteers assembled specialist fish relocation pods and equipment under the guidance of expert NSW DPI Fisheries staff. Five volunteers from Dubbo’s Inland Waterways OzFish headed out to this latest rescue, where Murray Cod up to around 110cm in length, along with scores of yellowbelly and threatened Silver Perch were saved. It was great to once again work alongside the DPI Fisheries team to get a good outcome for our native fish, Inland Waterways OzFish Chapter president Matt Hansen said. To see the team in the water, high fiving and cheering as those big Murray Cod were cradled to the relocation pods was an incredibly satisfying experience. We estimate that some of the bigger fish were of considerable age, and those fish don’t just grow that big overnight, so to see them saved is a fantastic outcome. Our native fish have been through the drought from hell over the past few years, with shocking large scale fish kills in many parts of the Murray-Darling Basin, so to see another couple of hundred escorted to safer waters is something our OzFish volunteers will never forget. The rescue work is an example of how recreational fishers from OzFish are working to help our native fish. The work across Australia is supported by BCF and its customers with this project made possible because of the experience and skills gained by OzFish volunteers who were part of the 2019/20 Native Fish Drought Response work with NSW DPI Fisheries. To learn more about the project and get involved with OzFish around Australia, go to www.ozfish.org.au or call 1800 431 308.

10.01.2022 That's a warp, the Seeds for Snapper Seagrass Weekend in Cockburn Sound has finished. With a whopping 300,000 seagrass seeds collected so far and more coming in. The third annual Seeds for Snapper weekend was an incredible success. Some super keen volunteers still out there now collecting more over the next few days to help us get to the 1 million mark... We should get there, there is plenty more seed left. Stay tuned for an update. BUT! None of it would have been possible wi...thout all of our volunteer's hard work and dedication. These guys put in nights building nets, collecting seed, cooking for the hungry volunteers and more. From the bottom of the ocean thank you so much Seeds for Snapper 2020 crew! Without our volunteers, we simply couldn't do this. It was a mammoth community effort and each and every one of you raised your hand to help. So amazing to see and we wanted to say thank you. We hope everyone had as much fun as us and we can't wait to do it all again with you next year. This year there was mermaids, divers, snorkelers, rec fishers, families, kids the young and old - all getting involved in seagrass restoration. Watch this space for updates on the project as the photos and video are coming in to show the world just what happens when we all get involved in habitat restoration to make fishing better for everyone.

10.01.2022 We're stoked to have Clean Seas joining us as Seeds for Snapper SA project partners!
