A Macca stocking project in the Retreat River in NSW has shown a rare sign of hope for Maccas with the stocked fish now breeding naturally for the first time - see

That's great news. The last time I had caught a Macquarie Perch was about 35 years ago - released it. It was in the Latrobe river. Never seen one since. Such a nice looking fish.
