They are going in!!! Sorry about the snags.

Hey legends,

Just a quick note to say the oyster baskets are going in this week and for the rest of the year out at the Port of Brisbane. 

Sorry about all the gear you are going to loose to snags out there. (not really sorry :))

Image sort of shows you where they are near. Basically if you fish at the most northern fence you will get snagged.

If you wanna find out more have a look here.

Its a 19.4 hectare site.

We are putting in around 1k this year. 

Over the next 6 years there will be 50,701 put in over the 19 hectare site. (funny number but what it is just where the numbers landed and what is on our permit haha) 

Perhaps we could host the AFO Christmas party at our ROB manufacturing facility? We have a BBQ and a place to fish from

We will be bringing in some pre seeded ROBs from our lease to seed the area.
