RECFISHWEST is delighted to announce the Snapper Guardians event will go ahead again this year at Woodman Point in Cockburn Sound on Saturday, 6 February.
It’s an open event for the community to come down and help release thousands of juvenile snapper into the Sound and celebrate the great fishing experiences it will provide.
Making it from egg to juvenile is a hazardous journey for pink snapper in the wild, with so many factors working against the fish surviving.
Recfishwest says, collecting and rearing the juveniles in a protected environment is something that significantly improves the chances of the snapper making it through to adulthood.
The event kicks off at 10:00am on Saturday, 6 February at Jervoise Bay, Woodman Point and finishes up around 12:00pm.
