Under all that willow was a river and it took a fire to find it, this part of the Curdies was  hidden from view until the Saint Patrick day  fire burnt a lot of the non native trees .

The earth moving contractor has done a great job not only has he removed the willows he has left the stumps to rot and then poisoned the stumps.

it looks great and I look forward to native trees and grasses to be replanted and native fish like blackfish to be encouraged and stocked to provide locals and visitors with a true fishing experience.
