Part 2/7:
For the past two years, Queensland's far north has been plagued with extreme weather events. Heavy rains, devastating floods, and tropical cyclones severely impacted the Gulf of Carparia, leading to a significant decline in fish numbers. These natural calamities not only disrupted local ecosystems but also posed economic challenges for fishermen and seafood suppliers.
However, as conditions have gradually improved and the skies cleared, the marine life has returned with vigor. The re-establishment of good weather patterns has been instrumental in revitalizing fish stocks, particularly the popular Spanish mackerel species.
