3 Where do my fishing fees go? Where do my fishing fees go? NSW Recreational Freshwater Fishing Guide Recreational fishing trusts All funds raised from the NSW Recreational Fishing Fee are placed into recreational fishing trusts – one for saltwater and one for freshwater – and can only be spent on improving recreational fishing. Committees of expert anglers provide advice on how funds in the trusts should be spent. There is a lot more information on the website at www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fisheries. Anyone can apply for funding from the trusts to improve recreational fishing. Details can be found at the above website. Examples of some trust funded projects are provided as follows. Fishcare volunteer program This dynamic program involves around 300 volunteers across the state providing face to face awareness and advising fishers about the rules and values of sustainable recreational fishing (see Working with Fishers section on page 7).
4 Where do my fishing fees go? Fisheries officers Additional fisheries officers are employed across regional NSW to maintain optimal levels of compliance in the freshwater fishery and provide advisory services to recreational fishers. Fish stocking Trust funds boost production of native fish and Trout in NSW DPI fish hatcheries at Narrandera, Port Stephens, Jindabyne and Ebor for public stocking. Approximately two million Golden Perch, Murray Cod, Silver Perch and Australian Bass plus approximately three million Trout and Salmon are stocked by the hatcheries into inland rivers or dams each year. The Dollar-for- Dollar native fish stocking program matches the monies raised by community groups to stock their local waterways with native fish. NSW Recreational Freshwater Fishing Guide
