Yep - yet Fisheries keep stocking them into streams in southern WA, then tell us we can't even have Aussie native species because they MIGHT cause an ecological problem !!

Check these bad boys out, harvested today.

I really need to get some scales. They are pretty dam heavy for tomatoes, one looks like a red pumpkin.

Nice work Charlie. Heirloom tommys can get much bigger than that and the big plus is they taste fantastic

Thanks mate.

Yea I am a convert thats for sure, heirlooms rock!

Its funny how my interests have moved from the fish to the vegies over the last few months, Im really enjoying something I never once gave a second thought growing up...I mean we always had a garden but I never paid too much attention, probably because I just didnt know much about plants.

Could be age setting in....

It seems so far the trout are getting into the SP side through the partition.

They seem to be getting along ok for the moment so I will have to wait for them to put on a bit of size before it will work.

A little vid of whats going on down there.

You could temporarily add another sheet of mesh, offset from the first by half a width and half a height of the mesh hole size?

What camera are you using? Has a better video quality than our (over-priced, over-featured) Olympus

Thankyou Charlie, I guess you have been fighting back the media since you appeared in the local paper.
