NSW DPI Fisheries are looking for litter legends on the Walsh Bay piers and Sydney ferry wharves who are doing the right thing and helping to keep these areas clean and tidy.
We will be running a monthly competition where you could win a great fishing pack which includes a reel, line, soft plastics and a Fish For Life fishing shirt.
All you need to do is simply snap a photo or video of you doing the right thing on the wharves, such as picking up litter or fishing responsibly e.g. using a cutting board for your bait or ensuring your gear does not interfere with other users, such as ferry commuters. Each month we will select a litter legend who will receive the fishing pack. Head to the DPI Fisheries Facebook page to find out how to enter.
Recent visits to the piers and wharves from DPI staff and Fishcare volunteers have reported some great fish being landed, reiterating that these iconic locations are simply ‘too good to lose’!
Even the smallest effort by more people will go a long way to ensuring continued access and presenting fishing in a positive manner.
Fisheries would like to thank those already doing their part at these locations and respecting what great fishing places Walsh Bay piers and Sydney’s ferry wharves are.
