As we move towards late summer and fishing around our coastal waters reaches its zenith for the year, the state of our fisheries becomes a more heated topic. Whether around the BBQ or the boat ramps, now is a good time to reflect how our fish stocks have changed over the years. While many fish stocks are rebounding, there are more that are declining and need urgent intervention.

We want to stop the decline, and we want to see an increase of fish abundance in our waters. That way we all win.
