Records with a route
  • Lake Burley Griffin

    A six-hundred-and-forty-six-hectare city lake in the middle of Canberra that has never dropped below three-quarters full in thirty-nine years of satellite watching — two million fish stocked since 1966, trout first and natives now, Murray cod against the walls and golden perch through the warm months, and carp to sight-fish on the flats.

  • Murrumbidgee River

    Two rivers under one name — a cold snowmelt trout stream falling off the Kosciuszko high country and across the Monaro, then fourteen hundred kilometres of slow lowland cod and golden perch water — with sixty-six years of the Tantangara gauge drawn on the page.
