Birch Creek, Clunes
Also called Bullarook Creek. Flows mainly through grazing land,
gravel and mud bed. Access may be a problem. Low flow and water
level in summer. Much of the riparian vegetation has been removed or
replaced by exotics such as willows which choke the stream in
places. Contains a self-supporting brown trout population, where
habitat is suitable, with fish averaging 300g, maximum 1.2 kg and a
few rainbow trout to 220g. Also redfin average 400g, maximum 600g,
goldfish, tench and river blackfish, mostly small but up to 300g in
the Smeaton area. Water was subject of brown trout fingerling
stocking trial 1982-1984, at the suggestion of angler groups.
Hatchery produced fish were found to have contributed very little to
the brown trout fishery. The system is beginning to suffer from a lack of inflowing
water. Future enhancement of the brown trout fishery will require
habitat management.
