Netting perch fingerlings at Gingin




Here is the end result of some old fashion blood sweat and tears dragging a net through mud scum rocks and weeds !!!
I am just glad I was the camera man :)
As you can see its not a bad catch thats if you like tadpoles there seems to be a plague of them
there are few perch fingerlings amongst that lot but pound for pound tadpoles rain supreme.The tadpoles were transfered to a pond containing larger perch apparently the larger perch dont mind snacking on them from time to time .
The perch fingerlings were taken back to the shed where there is a suitable holding tank for them from there they can be observed then sent out to customers.
