All hatched salmon fry have now been removed from the incubators and put in stainless steel tanks inside the hatching shed and in the outside SS tank (No 4). Our best guess count is 95,000 young fish. All have had their 1st feed and are getting used to swimming freely in their environment.

All the remaining 1 year old fish have been released except a small number for possible future broodstock.

Recently there has been two occasions when water from the flooded creek has gone through the shed despite our sandbagging efforts. No damage done but its becoming a bit of a pain every time we get heavy rain. 

The AGM went well with plenty of discussion and a quick breakdown of the past year at the hatchery. Welcome to new committee members Barry Gregan, Ray Hill and Duncan Grant and a big thank you for great service from retiring members Raylene and Robert Clarke and Tim Wakefield. The Chairmans report to the AGM is attached below.
