Rig Recycle
Take a look at Rig Recycle in action and view fishing gear source reduction initiatives
What is Rig Recycle?
The Rig Recycle program collects selected recreational fishing and packaging items and diverts them from landfill through an innovative repair, reuse and recycle framework.
The project connects recreational fishers, community clean-up participants, recreational fishing retailers and suppliers, social enterprises and community partners in a holistic and truly circular program that fills a current recycling gap.
Why recreational fishing gear?
Fishing can produce a lot of waste, but this initiative helps reuse and recycle as much as possible to keep your fishing gear circulating and out of landfill (and the ocean).
Responsible fishers love their local environment and reducing waste is just another way they are getting involved in looking after it.
We also work to reduce commercial fishing gear debris, through Project Recon.
