Great story, and a great thing you did for that fish :salute:. Any ideas on why that stream ran dry so suddenly? What kind of trout is that?

In the foothills it runs year round. Approx 5kms after the hills it goes beneath the bed into an aquifer. As it crosses the plains the next 35kms can be dry for most of the year. Then about 15kms before running into a lake it starts flowing again. I was hoping with all the rain we had that it would stay flowing longer and let more fish make the run up to the headwaters.

I would say it was a female brown trout.
If it survives and is around in a few weeks I'll throw in a fly and take a closer look.

I'm not so sure a certain crustacean did "the right thing"...

I Googled "Zoidberg and fish" and this was the first image that came up.

Few more kms covered and found more than I can deal with.
I'll be giving the local council a call and hopefully they will help.
I took a few of the worst looking ones and moved them to a stream.

This beast was approx two and a half feet long, the kids called him T-Rex.
