The Corner Inlet Fishery Management Advisory Committee (CIFMAC) recently came together, with recreational and commercial fishers, Victorian Seafood, VRFish, and other key stakeholders all at the table to discuss the future of one of Victoria's most important fisheries.

Adaptive fisheries management in response to climate relies on environmental data!

The Deakin University Marine Mapping Group have been leaders in coastal and marine observing systems. Their recent work has included:
- A coastal wave buoy network to deliver data on wave climate, water temperature and storm exposure.
- The Bonney National Reference Station to measure key variables linked to ecosystem productivity.
- An acoustic animal tracking network to monitor key species movements.

Drawing on information from Deakin Marine Mapping Group will help us detect change and build the sectors climate resilience!

The San Remo Fisherman's Co-op attracts around 200,000 customers per year, including over 25,000 visitors to see the daily pelican feeding!

All seafood sold through the Co-op is Australian, sustainably caught or farmed, with member fishers supplying gummy shark, scallops, lobster, octopus, and a wide range of scale fish, which are all processed in-house.

As a two time winner of the Take-Away Award at the Victorian Seafood Industry Awards....you'd be mad not give their fish & chips a try!
