) - The Alabama Wildlife Federation hosted an event on Dauphin Island Wednesday morning to discuss wild oysters in the state.
“This area right here at Cedar Point beach is in the vicinity of some of the most productive wild oyster waters in mobile Bay and Mississippi sound. But there are some gaps out in that area that if cultch material, the material that oysters can attach to was put in place, we’re hopeful that we can actually restore and increase oyster abundance in those areas, AWF Executive Director Tim Gothard said.
“This project is successful, we’ll have abundant oysters that can be harvested for food but also at the same time, we’ll sustain oyster populations that’ll be great for people who love to fish but also help keep the Bay and the waters clean,” Gothard said.
