Richter Lures and Madfish Gear are the FADs fishing partners! Given photographic evidence of the FADs fishing success will help ensure the program continues into the future, the Richter and Madfish crew on board sponsoring the photo competition. If you're fishing the FADs, send your FADs fishing photos to Recfishwest’s Zach Relph to take part in the Richter/Madfish FADs Photo Comp for a chance to win awesome monthly Richter and Madfish prizes! By the end of the three-year trial, it is critically important that we have plenty of video and photographic evidence showing the FADs’ fishing success. Damian Thomson joined Michael Marnane on a Perth FADs mission and scored this solid dolphinfish!

The four-week marron season is underway! With more than 10,000 marron licence holders in WA, chasing this awesome freshwater species endemic to the South West is a very popular pastime. Starting last Saturday at noon and continuing to noon 5 February, fishers will be exploring the South West and enjoy one of the State’s most unique and valued fisheries. Recfishwest is committed to enhancing our important marron fishery, with a three-year stocking program — launched with Premier Mark McGowan in 2019 — to see 300,000 marron released into Peel and South West freshwater waterways by the end of this year. If you're heading to Harvey Dam, Water Corporation have closed multiple 4WD access points to the dam due to anti-social behaviour. While the vast majority of marron fishers act responsibly, please make sure you clean up after yourself and treat the environment with respect. Wanting to get a feed of marron this season? Get helpful hints and tips here! Also, be sure to tag #recfishwest in your marron fishing photos.
