Fishery
The prawn fishery in Mooloolaba 'historically dubbed, home of the Mooloolaba Prawn' is renowned for its premium Eastern King Prawns, which are wild caught using sustainable demersal otter trawling methods. The fishery is a part of the broader East Coast Otter Trawl Fishery, and the Kelana leaves its port of Mooloolaba to source prawns from the 'Southern Offshore' region.
The 'Melicertus Plebejus' Eastern King Prawn is caught year-round, in depths of up to 200 metres with its peak season being May-July.

Since then, they have been providing premium product to the larger wholesale companies based on the Sunshine Coast and international retail and restaurant supply to both Singapore & Hong Kong.
THE CREW
The crew aboard the Kelana battle the elements year-round, heading to sea in all conditions—rain, wind, or sunshine. Except for October, they spend 20 to 27 days each month on the water, ensuring they catch and deliver only the highest quality King Prawns.
With their vessel fully fuelled and stocked with enough food to sustain three grown men for a month, they maintain the boat, catch the prawns and live onboard during this time.
The boys have been fishing their whole lives, their passion for fishing goes beyond it being just a job, it's a lifestyle. Being on the water provides them a unique connection to the ocean that very few professions offer.
