Our thanks to Mark Alexander for his time and candid discussion regarding the fisheries reporting requirements facing commercial fishers from 1 September.
His consideration of moving his business to New South Wales is an indictment on the fisheries management regime in this State.
More importantly, if Fisheries Queensland is looking for reasons why industry are less and less willing to engage on fisheries management issues - this industry do not have trust or faith in those individuals managing our fisheries resources. All you need to do is listen to Mark during this discussion to truly understand the level of frustration and stress being felt across this industry.
This podcast focuses on simplified equipment lists for small fishing vessel operations.

Thanks to Brett Fuchs for sharing his insights with the Association. This podcast is a reminder of the depth of feeling and the utter lack of trust in the so-called reform process and those leading that reform.
If you want to understand why industry has lost faith in Fisheries Queensland and the reform process, please listen to this podcast.
The Association is producing content to provide the community and industry an alternative view to those of Fisheries Queensland and the State Government.
The Association spoke with John Hellmuth and Amada Carnellor, trawl fishers and seafood retailers based in Tin Can Bay. They share their views of the so-called fisheries reform process.
