This weekend just gone volunteers met on the shores of Lake Eucumbene to stock 10,000 yearling trout bred and raised by the staff at Gaden Trout hatchery. Coordinated by the Monaro Acclimatisation Society, MAS members, local anglers and members of Trout Trollers Australia and Alpine Trout Fishing Australia gathered at Buckenderra Holiday village to assist in the release by transporting the fish to various parts of the lake.
Meanwhile a similar event occurred at Lake Jindabyne with 10,000 yearlings also released there.
With such quality fish being released into our impoundments the future of trout fishing in the Snowies is assured.
The Monaro Acclimatisation Society would like to express my appreciation to all anglers involved and to the Gaden Hatchery staff for producing such wonderful fish.
