North East Catchment Management Authority (CMA) will partner with the Alpine Fly Fishers Inc to deliver an instream project to restore fishing habitat on the Ovens River below Jacks Swimming Hole at Bright.
A $38,000 grant has been awarded to the project by the Victorian Government through the Recreational Fishing Grants Fund. The project is supported by the Australian Trout Foundation and other angling groups, as well as the Victorian Fisheries Authority and Alpine Shire Council.
