Meet Tamworth OzFisher Lisa Jenner – the carp-catching queen of 2026! ⁠ ⁠

Lisa absolutely cleaned up in the first OzFish online Carp Muster, with an incredible haul of 433 carp from the Murray–Darling Basin over six months. She accounted for the lion’s share of the total 619 carp caught during the competition, taking home a $1,000 BCF voucher for her efforts. ⁠

The Carp Muster invited rec fishers across the Murray-Darling Basin to get out on the water and compete to catch the most and the biggest carp possible, uploading their results online. ⁠

Every carp removed helps give native fish like Murray Cod a hand by reducing competition for food and habitat and taking pressure off our waterways. ⁠

A massive congratulations to Lisa on an outstanding effort – and to every fisho who got involved in the muster. ⁠

Stay tuned for our next Basin online fishing comp, which we hope to launch in December 2026! ⁠

Spring is here, which means Murray Cod are pairing up to breed!

The annual closed season runs from 1 September to 30 November, giving Cod a chance to lay eggs, protect their young and replenish our rivers.

While Cod fishing takes a break, OzFish chapters across the Murray-Darling Basin are keeping busy:
• Installing fish hotels: Launching habitat structures to shelter juvenile Cod.
• Revegetating waterways: Planting aquatic native plants to increase food sources and prevent erosion.

Still want to wet a line? You can target Cod year-round in key impoundments exempt from the closure in NSW, Qld and Victoria. Check your state's fisheries regulations before fishing.
