Koetong Creek, Koetong
Rises in mountainous forested country, then flows swiftly down a
steep gradient to a backwater of Lake Hume, gravel and granite rock
bed. Narrow in the upper reaches and access requires local
knowledge. Carries brown trout to 1.2 kg, although most fish are
much smaller; some rainbow trout to 300g, and some spiny freshwater
crayfish. Part of the
stream has been identified as suitable habitat to attempt to
establish a viable population of trout cod and a 3 - 5 year trial
stocking program with hatchery-produced fish commenced in 1989.
Note: The taking of trout cod from Victorian Inland Waters is prohibited.
