A great day was enjoyed on Minjungbal country fishing with children and family from the Tweed Aboriginal community to celebrate National NAIDOC Week 2022. Community Elders along with the DPI Fisheries Aboriginal Fisheries team, Community Programs team and Fishcare volunteers Peter and Paul, all participating to make the day an outstanding success.
The day commenced at the Minjungbal Aboriginal Cultural Centre with some cultural learning and a BBQ before heading down to the river for a fish. A number nice fish were caught on the day by the children involved including Bream, Whiting and a respectable 42cm Dusky Flathead by one lucky young a
ngler. Special thanks to Aaron and Blake at Tweed Bait for getting involved in activities and for their support in providing bait, tackle and some fantastic prizes for participants.
