Carp in Macquarie Marshes stopped in their tracks

Carp in Macquarie Marshes stopped in their tracks

Life just got a lot harder for Carp migrating through the Macquarie Marshes, in Central West NSW.
A Carp Separation Cage has been strategically placed to reduce carp finding breeding grounds in the Marsh and competing with native fish larvae for food and resources.
If early catches are an indicator of things to come, the carp population is in for a hammering too: in its first two days of full operation the cage successfully removed 180 Carp attempting to migrate upstream in Bulgeraga Creek.
The project was funded by the Central West CMA. For more information, contact Sam Davis (Fisheries NSW) on 02 6881 1284.
