Congratulations go to Mick Crofts of Shellharbour who won a $10,000 boat package including $1000 of Shimano tackle and gear.

DPI/Fisheries advise the Port Hacking FAD (22) has been replaced and is at 34.08.356 south and 151.22.621 east however the Yamba FAD is now missing and will be replaced as soon as possible.
Please remember that tying off to FADs is prohibited as it places excess strain on the mooring line causing it to break. If you see a boat tied to a FAD, please report it to DPI/Fisheries including the registration of the vessel.
