    Are you kidding Who wouldn't want stocking of Barra in Lenthalls.
    Best of both worlds, Bass and Barra.

    It would be great as it appears to be a good fishery for it. How many barra did they lose over the wall from the previous stockings.

    there has been a large number of barra caught at lenthalls dam between 400mm and 550mm over the last month.
    they seem to be from the last stocking in December last year. they where released at 50mm.
    unbelievable growth rate
    we think that lots of barra went over the wall when it flooded some years back.
    if all goes well this year there will be 10,000 more barra in the lake this year.

    Both bass & barra have gone over the wall there in the past,,, & both will again in the future. they both have similar requirements to go to the salt.

    I say 10 000 barra is not enough.

    Please put more barra in lenthalls!! Its a beautiful dam.

    Given current translocation policy, it makes sense to put barra in.

    Yes put heaps in....Heap and heaps and even a few more.....Might stop a few of you blokes coming up to Awoonga....The less boats we have up here the better...More barra for me

    Many people pass the great fishery at Lentalls on their way futher north for BARRA. I have fished Lentals for bass and know what a great fishery it is. The stocking group are to be complimented for the work they have done with bass over the years. I am sure that they will do just as good of a job with barra. More people will tick Lentalls on their SIP if there are barra in there, and this will flow onto bass fingerlings as well. YES more Barra!
