PeterJ Posted May 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 The council social media approval process takes at least a month so they haven't put it on their own facebook page. There's buttons at the bottom of the page if you want to let your friends know it's on. BCC Pest Fish Education Event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicole1313 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Info relayed from my partner - This is the smallest of the 3 perch he caught. Grunters were too thick using worms (7 in 20 mins) so swapped to bread. 3 perch, another 3 grunter and a 30cm tandanus on bread after that. His last perch was landed at 11:59am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexter Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Wow! No Tilapia?? That is really surprising. Maybe the locals have been doing a bit of sneaky fishing. Good to see a fair few locals caught too. I never even knew there were silver perch in there. What were with the 101 Barred Grunters??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
