Scallops

Southern Saucer Scallops

Our southern saucer scallops are considered amongst the finest in the world. We market our scallops under the brand name Golden Net. It has a sweet and silky texture and are caught form our fishing grounds in Shark Bay and the Abrohlos Islands.



The scallop season usually runs from March to June depending on the environmental conditions and catch levels. The catch levels can vary quite considerable from one year to the next  and are monitored daily by the Fisheries Department. This is to ensure that there are sufficient juveniles to settle and populate for the following seasons.
