    Fish Stocking

    Wouldn’t it be nice if Qld Fisheries could do something like this. Of course licence money helps and I would be happy to pay if this was an outcome. Plus they have done it for a number of other estuary species.

    More Mulloway Stocked!

    For the second year running, the dedicated team at DPI’s Port Stephens Fisheries Institute marine hatchery have successfully reared tens of thousands of healthy Mulloway fingerlings as part of the DPI Marine Stocking Program! 🐟🐟🐟We have now completed the stocking of 30,000 juvenile Mulloway into the Georges River in Sydney’s south, 10,200 fingerlings into the Hastings River, near Port Macquarie on the NSW North Coast and 19,000 fish into Lake Macquarie, north of Sydney. This latest stocking activity builds on last year's successful release of 80,000 juvenile Mulloway into the Georges River/Botany Bay and 10,000 fingerlings into the Hastings River.
    These baby Mulloway measured up to 45mm on release and are expected to grow very quickly, reaching legal size of 70cm in about 3-4 years. Highly regarded as an iconic sportfish, Mulloway is a key target in the Georges River, Lake Macquarie and the Hastings River Recreational Fishing Havens.
    This recent stocking success builds on previous stocking events involving Dusky Flathead and Kingfish. This Mulloway marine stocking project is another fantastic example of your fishing fees at work.

    It would be good if they did ,my cousin farms cobia and gold spot cod so other species can be done, qld dpi was lookng for jew frames last year to check there DNA to see it they have moved north over the boarder so if they have they can release all the want.
