Holland Creek, Benalla
Rises in forested country and flows through open grazing land.
Rock bottom in the headwaters, mud and sand downstream, with runs
and deep pools. Bank erosion and stream siltation below Tatong.
Recedes to a series of pools in a dry year. Supports a small trout
fishery between Fords Bridge and Tatong, which is now supplemented
by annual brown trout stocking by the Department of Primary
Industries. Contains brown
trout, maximum 750g, rainbow trout average 220g, abundant but
usually small river blackfish and some carp in the lower reaches. An
occasional Macquarie perch is reported (580g, 1990) from what is
believed to be a small remnant population.
