Burrumbeet Creek carp slaughter!

[Rod Bender]

Reckon I could even get myself a fish here! Very ordinary leaving them on the bank although looks like the council has come to the rescue! Going to be some well fertilised soil there! Check out the link below for the story.

Cornacarpios average haul per year! That's insane

[ChrisD]

That is just crazy....mind you the way I have been fishing of late I probably couldn't even a hook up here..

Hope there are a few people up there with landing nets to help the rest of the mud suckers join the rest. Cheers nuzza43.

Yep, the place has been absolutely hammered by people with landing nets, drag nets, pitchforks, someone even took a shotgun down I think...haven't been myself because I don't see the appeal but apparently the ground is now covered in dead fish and the place reeks of rotting carp.

Bugger that, the place will reek now good to see all the dead carp though, cheers davo

Must admit the first thing that come to mind with me was 12 gauge = fun :thumbsup: (only if on private property & in private water)

[muzza43]

12gauge or 410 gets the job done. ( they do stink though.) Cheers muzza43.

so the lake is drying out.. hope the depi would plan ahead for the next fill to stock something before carps take it over again.....

" the place has been absolutely hammered by people with landing nets, drag nets, pitchforks " I don't see why people would do that ? what am I missing ? they will die eventually, are they taken to eat or fertilize their gardens ? or just to get them out of the water way ?
