Episode 68: Rachel Weeks, Seeds For Snapper

Send us Fan MailEpisode 68: Rachel Weeks, Seeds For SnapperThis week we are joined by Rachel Weeks, Project Manager at OzFish, currently working on the Seeds For Snapper Seagrass Restoration. This is a project which is a project run by OzFish with the support of Green Adelaide, Hills and Fleurieu Landscape Board  and BCF, where volunteers collect Posidonia seagrass seeds, which are then organised, put into biodegradable sand bags and then placed back into the ocean to help re grow SA’s Seagrass meadows. This is such an important project for fishing in SA, as these seagrasses provide habitat for Snapper, squid and other species. It is great to hear all the background to the project, hear how the operation is run and how you can get involved.  Plus, we  cover all the news in SA Fishing, including:·      All about the PIRSA report into the snapper stocks·      A couple of recent shark sightings·      Rock Fishos rescued at St Kilda following the recent storms·      A recap of another hugely successful Onka Stompa·      The Reeling in Junior Anglers boat fishing simulator is up and running·      Draining the Warren Reservoir We also tell you where the fish are biting and feature a handy accessory from The Fishing Guru as our tackle item of the week
