Line Building

Line building is mostly done in the warm days of summer.  The tides are nice and low and the weather pleasant.  During summer our oysters are in their reproduction cycle and are not ready for consumption until the waters start to cool in March.  This gives the oyster farmers time to do line building or repairing from the winter months.  We use a fire fighting pump and jet a hole in the sand to put the post in.  Our lines look very similar to what the grape growers do except we build our lines in the pristine waters of South Australia.
