Traditional owners of Yuin, along with the New South Wales south coast, have lodged a native title claim in the Federal Court to fight for cultural fishing rights.
The claim covers approximately 17,000 kilometers, includes land south of Sydney, from the Royal National Park to Eden, and extends five kilometers into the ocean.
Yuin man, Walley Stewart, says he is excited to ‘test the waters’ and keep his culture alive in the fight for traditional fishing rights.
