With four generations of our family involved in fishing, it’s always hard to understand the perception of those who think fishers don’t care about the environment.

Fishermen live and breathe the sea. It’s not just a job, it’s in their blood.

Their connection to the sea and everything in it, goes far beyond just earning a living.

They’re on the front line every day.

Their office is the ocean - full of everything from microscopic living organisms to massive and majestic whales.

They see dolphins playing alongside their boat and sharks chasing fish.

They see when coral is spawning or when currents are changing.

What most people don’t see is the work fishers do behind the scenes to actively preserve our beautiful oceans and sustainably catch fish.

From developing fisheries management plans alongside government and environmental groups, to reporting anomalies with a crab they just caught, it’s all part of fishing life.

It’s not just about protecting their livelihoods for the generations to come, but about protecting what they truly love - the ocean (and all the life within).

That’s why it is so vital to support Australian seafood and fishers (over imported, possibly unsustainable, seafood).

We know where our seafood comes from, we know it’s sustainable and we know our fishers are true caretakers and advocates of our pristine oceans ♥️

🔥 Hot take: Some of Australia's most passionate environmental advocates work in the seafood industry 🫶

It's easy to think of conservation and seafood production as being on opposite sides of the conversation.

Our experience has often been the opposite.

So many of the fishers, oyster farmers, and seafood producers we work with are deeply invested in promoting healthy marine ecosystems and finding practical environmental solutions to sustain them. Not only do their livelihoods depend on it, they also want to ensure those environments remain productive for future generations!

🤔 Where do you think the conservation sector and seafood industry have more in common in than people realise?

Unfortunately, our shop won’t be open tomorrow (Sunday, Sept 12), due to some confusion with road closures and partial road closures with the Ironman event. You can still access Parkyn Pde through the Wharf carpark and then one lane of the road will be open, so there’s still a way to support the local businesses! Sorry for the inconvenience, love from the Rockliff Family ♥️

Some footage from my fisheries observer days aboard the Australian auto-longliner Petuna Endeavour, hundreds of kilometres offshore.

A glimpse at the catch, the care that goes into looking after the product onboard, and some pretty impressive visitors along the way 🐋

There can be some impressive catches out there, but it’s a highly regulated fishery, with catch quotas, onboard cameras, vessel tracking and electronic logbooks. The vessel returns to these fishing grounds each year, with catches remaining consistent over time.

Here’s what happens after the catch 👇

It never ceases to amaze me how these boys unload boat after boat across our Rockliff Seafoods wharf!

While our crew handle the 5kg frozen boxes on the wharf, it’s the boat crew and skipper who are on the boat, throwing hundreds of boxes from the depths of their freezer up to their crew mate on the deck, and then up the conveyor!

It’s a common scene along all the wharves in Mooloolaba, but one you never get tired of! 🙌

These guys are just made tough! 👊

Thanks boys (and girls) for doing what you do, spending weeks at sea and then unloading here at Mooloolaba, with arguably the best-quality wild-caught prawns in the world! 🦐🌊♥️

You rock! 🤘

The excitement is building for Easter with the crew at Rockliff unloading gorgeous fresh Mooloolaba Eastern King Prawns off the Sadie Reeves this morning!

The sun was out and the prawns were next-level, so our factory manager Richian whipped out her phone and started recording!! 🤩

These are the guys you’re supporting when you buy your seafood local! All along Mooloolaba Spit, we’ve worked hard together to keep the prices stable, so they can stay affordable for the community this Easter! ♥️

We can’t wait to see you here! ♥️🦀🦐🦞🐙🦑 Lots of love from the Rockliffs! ♥️
