Ever wondered what spring looks like from our side of the lake? Here’s the latest on the oysters, the water and a few changes behind the scenes. Swipe through, the last one’s our favourite 🦪

These posts from Woodshield the real heroes. Tough as nails and holding the lease together through all conditions.
Spring’s a cracking time for our Merimbula rocks. They come out of winter nice and full, and as the lake warms up and the feed kicks in, you can really taste the change.
Shout out to for joining us on the lake.
Captain Dusty can spot a good oyster from a mile out 🦪
Water is warming up and our oysters are filtering the lake, keeping things nice and clear. After the recent rain, the lake freshens up and the brine softens for a little while. Nothing wrong with that, you just get a gentler, sweeter oyster for a week or two.
Spring rocks are looking pretty and tasting even better They’re plump and firm, still holding a good bit of that winter creaminess, and they only get better as the season goes on.
On the nose it’s fresh sea spray, cucumber and a bit of sea grass. First hit is a clean, crisp brine, then it rolls into sweetness pretty quick.
The finish is where spring Sydney rocks from Merimbula shine. Long, minerally and savoury, with that classic coppery tail. Clean as, never metallic.
