You say that the condamine was your river. Sadly that is the attitude of many land holders, note that they are not river holders, just land holder who think they own the river. That is what has been stopped along the ovens and Murray rivers. Nobody owns the river
How can you compare QLD to the likes of NSW and VIC when these states have the full blown salt/freshwater fishing license..there is huge money generated to be spent on restocking and facilities in these states. Until QLD comes on board with a similar licences don't winge about the government not doing enough. I reckon the sooner the better...Cheers
Any wayI am on the lookout for some Pink Ribbon Tape.It will stay with me in the car.
Let alone the repayment to landholder for the the loss of their property, 10m by a two or twenty or even hundred klms of land, now cant be utilised. Now we have to have water trough for all stock and pumping and wastage from the river.
It all sounds good, put up lots of photos and videos of cattle drinking at the river. Again it is a us and them mentality.Buy some land yourself, do what you want, show us how to do it with your own money, and when you show how it can be done and still turnover a reasonable income, then some might listen to you.
As for me now retired, but we fenced off riverfrontage over 25years ago, planted wildlife corridors and all that you are talking about, including not allowing irresponsible fisherfold from pillage the cod, burning fence posts , leaving gates open , aborting heifers that the bull got in through the open gate. Cost of one irresponisble lot of fishermen that we agreed to let in, lets see, replace fence posts approx $1,000, abort 30 heifers (Vet fees, loss of production for twelve months for stud breeding) $60,000. That does not include own labour, and that is a conservative estimate, when our bull calves even from heifers fetch $5,000 to $10,000.
But enough of what my personal experience and loss, also the 16 cod taken the smallest was approx 15lb, that was their boast at the local pub.
Would you put up with this in any business you owned.
