PROVERB: “In the morning be first up, and in the evening last to go to bed, for they that sleep catch no fish”

OK, I'll play the devil's advocate here. What if Wide Bay Water investigate the almost annual losses of Barramundi in Lenthall's due to either cold weather, or water releases and they decide that they cannot control either, but to look good in the general public's eyes when it comes to dying fish, they decide that these fish shouldn't be stocked? It could be an outcome that DEEDI re-evaluate the limits of stocking the species. There are times when good intentions can back fire.
Here's a article Nat Bromhead did in the local paper the Chronicle where he is now the fishing editor after giving away guiding here in Hervey Bay which is a smart move considering the way the QLD Govt looks after our fisheries.
Whilst it appears that a temporary resolution has occurred a long term solution needs to be planned and acted on or else it will only happen again in the future. Paul just how much excavation would be needed to either drain the pool or provide deep water access to the Burrum?I do not think that WBW will do anything more unless they are persuaded by the big stick of public opinion and political pressure. Who is the local member and what party do they belong to and is there an aspiring member for the coming election?A few letters never go astray.Kudos to Paul for raising the matter. CheersRay
