yabbies in cooper creek
Submitted by Timmo on Mon, 2011-09-05 13:27
Photos of Yabbies covering the ground alongside Cooper Creek Nth of Ballera.
Apparently they are either feeding at night, or the water they are living in is shrinking, so nowhere to live, anyhow they are collecting them with broad mouth shovels, no net needed, most are bigger than a "Red Bull" can in length

Good feed
Now there's an awesome feed that's easy to catch if I ever saw one.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

I was working in Ballera back
I was working in Ballera back in 2000, and was talking to some of the guys who had yabbied in the creeks and was told they brought back 2 wheelie bins full back to the camp for dinner.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:
n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or
n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

Crook water
My bet would be a flow of contaminated water, sheep manure will do it also a lot of gas wells around there ( i think ).
Marron will do the same very often when you try and introduce them to a new location , say to a farm dam, if they do not like it they just walk out and commit suicide.
That is why it is best to leave them in a bag or cage in the new water for a week or two. Females with berries are good, they are a lot less likely to walk and suicide.
