Interview with Christine Watterson Todays interview is with Christine Watterson, former Victoria Fisheries officer and frothing spearo! In this episode of the Noob Spearo podcast, we have an in-depth discussion with former Victoria Fisheries Officer Christine Watterson about the alarming proposed cuts to the fisheries offices in Victoria. The cuts would severely impact fisheries management, leaving marine life vulnerable to illegal fishing. Shrek and Christine explore the implications for recreational and commercial fishers, discuss notorious illegal fishing busts, and share the importance of community action. Christine also opens up about her transition from compliance to maritime industry, and her passion for spearfishing and marine art.
