Competition to reward Mildura’s best nature-strip

WHY reward people for growing water hungry invasive plants?

Jack Sprat

JACK Sprat, better than six foot high weeds and rubbish. It’s called having pride.

Annmaree Simmons

COUNCIL owns the nature strips, you have fun looking after them.

Shock redfin find in Ouyen Lake

BETTER than a carp ending up there.

Mike Rickard

LAKE Cullulleraine used to be loaded with them. A great eating fish, but vermin also.

Trevor Griffiths

FANTASTIC catch and great fish to eat.

Carmel Parker

I ALWAYS thought that they were the best to eat. A good fighter too.

Graeme Strathairn

THE lake is fed from the river Murray. So is it possible for a few fingerlings to have got through the system.
