Representing WA’s Trout Fishers
The WA Branch of the ATF represents the interests of trout fishers on several committees and we are active participants in workshops and community events such as Troutfest each year.
The Freshwater Fisheries Reference Group (FFRG) is convened by RecFishwest and provides advice and recommendations to the Department of Fisheries on locations and numbers for the stocking of trout each year.
The Western Australian Inland Fisheries Research Advisory Committee (WAIFRAC) is convened by the Department of Fisheries and provides advice on the implementation of stocking strategies including review and evaluation of production and release of trout from the Pemberton Hatchery.
The ATF is also represented on the Recfishwest Board.
