Big thanks to Steve and Beau for picking up some Toga for Ewen Maddock on their northern trip.
Big thanks to PRFMA for helping out their poor cousins up the road making space available in their transporter for our fish.

Dragooned some local and interstate tourists to help out with the release.

Plan was to pick up a few Toga for Genetic Diversity in the dam, but as we only wanted a dozen or so fish it was a tough order to fill for a reasonable price. Ended up with 15 from Wayne Spencer from Calliope. Did us a good price to! Nice healthy looking fingerlings around the 100 to 200mm mark.

Steve and Beau dropped in to see Bill Proctor on the way home and Bill made a nice donation of Bass fingerlings to the PRFMA, the boys letting us have a couple of buckets for Ewen Maddock at the same time they delivered the Toga.

Was a bit of a round trip, not much time for fishing but managed a good little Barra session (thanks Kurt)
Glad to help Andrew.
Steve I watch Togas every day never get tired of looking at them, if fishing where they are would rather fish for them than anything else.

First time I have been able to access this thread. Thanks Steve and Beau for all your assistance in releasing these little tackers!

Cheers Dave
