Victorian fisheries at Snobs creek have produced young blackfish at their hatchery, this picture is before they used up the egg sack.

I placed sixteen adult river blackfish into this waterway two years ago and I was keen to know how the water was, the test was good the only problem was the d/o was low so I asked the owner to turn on the aerator that should help.

Cooriemungle prison was for a long time a low security prison for end of term prisoners its now a holiday camp where schools and other clubs can stay and explore the beautiful countryside.

fishsticks.co now has the ability to do a thorough water test. So, if you would like to have your private dam or waterway tested. I can test for p/h salt phosphorus, water temp, depth and more, I have an under-water drone to look at habitat and fish I even have a small boat with a sounder on board, I have an aerial drone for an overhead view, so very comprehensive test.

There will be a small charge to cover travel and other things such as chemical replacement. I have several to do before Christmas already so get in touch soon.

It was a tight fit but after some wrangling and chopping of trees we squeezed them in.

I am hoping to use this boat to explore smaller rivers and stream which the big boat can’t do.

( rattus lutreolus )

Great to have them around, these are native rats and don’t pose the same risks as the common rat.

When we remove swampy areas, we do harm so we should both keep the swampy areas and put more back, swampy areas clean water and provide places for fish and other animals live.
