{{+1}}Redfin in Jindabyne, Eucumbene & Tantangara ????{{-1}}
{{start}}
Here is an interesting email from Steve Samuels that I wanted to share with you. Redfin are prolific breeders and carnivores ... if the right precautions are not in place, with no chance of mishap, their numbers will quickly out-compete trout for food and as soon as they get to any size they have the predisposition to eat trout fry and fingerlings.{{end}}

In Tasmania a large percentage of the "Whitebait" taken is of the Galaxiid and Smelt families. Whitebait are similar in appearance to Galaxiid and populate coastal waters particularly around Tasmania. they run up streams and rivers to spawn and their spawn runs often cross the spawn runs of both Galaxiid and Smelt as they move to sea to spawn.{{end}}

The term 'spinner' refers to that stage in a Dun's life cycle when it has moved off the water or, vegetation etc. after drying its wings. The adult or imago of all Mayflies, Caddis flies and Midges can technically be regarded as spinners. The following Spinner is a generic representation for members of the “Leptophlebiidae” family of Mayflies and the various Highland Duns & Spinners, which are members of the “Oniscigastridae” family. Hatches generally occurs between the months of October and March. Carry black, brown, red and blue damsel versions.{{end}}
