Ladies and Gents....... we need your help to restore recreational fishing in the Great Sandy Straits! The long awaited Draft of the Great Sandy Marine Park Rezoning is now available for public comment - and it is exceptionally good news for anglers. When implemented, the proposed changes will address long standing anomalies in the GSMP that have impacted the conservation values and the quality of recreational fishing in the park for decades. Even better, there is a final opportunity to improve the outcomes for anglers and conservationists alike by tweaking a couple of the proposed changes. In this interview Fraser Coast Fishing Alliance Chair Scotto Mitchell walks us through the changes and shares the final tweaks that the FCFA advocates. We urge all sport fishers, who fish the Sandy Straits regularly or just visit occassionally to complete this survey. Please listen to this interview and if you agree with the changes that Scotto suggests, please let the powers that be know. And if if you have other thoughts and ideas then obviously feel free to voice those too! For links and tips for completing the survey please visit https://doclures.com/great-sandy-marine-park
