DPI SURVEY - Have your say

[mrsswordfisherman]

What do fishers want out of their fishing? Have your say! 

If you fish for Mulloway, Snapper, or Kingfish, then read on! 

DPI Fisheries is investigating the goals of recreational fishers who target these three species in NSW. While most anglers and spearos know what makes a great fishing trip for them, it can be tough to work out what’s best for everyone across the fishery.  
 
Clear sets of outcomes are developed alongside harvest strategies, to ensure that fisheries can perform for stakeholders across the commercial, recreational and Aboriginal fishing sectors. Earlier this year, we held workshops with NSW fishers to investigate objectives for Mulloway, Kingfish and Snapper. The findings of this first phase included increased investment in fisheries management, improved recreational fishing experiences and steps to ensure healthy stock. 
 
For the second phase of this research, a survey of recreational fishers in NSW hopes to understand which objectives from these workshops are a priority for each species. The survey is now open to all recreational fishers in NSW. Read more about the survey via this link: https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/fishing/recreational-fishing/surveys-recfish-objectives/english

This online survey is open until 17 April so check it out to have your say! 
 
The research is funded by the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation and the NSW Recreational Fishing Trust.
