Habitat restoration in Lake Eppalock

Thanks to your fishing licence fees, Ozfish Unlimited received a Large Grant to increase fish habitat and improve recreational fishing opportunities in Lake Eppalock. The Ozfish team and contractors deployed more than 40 logs and root balls into the lake.

They also used a new method of securing large logs and root balls to existing tree structures to avoid movement in periods of flooding.

We've stocked over 2 million Murray cod and 1.5 million golden perch between 2019 and 2024 to this prized fishing spot, and now there's more homes for these fish to roam!
