Barkers Creek Reservoir Harcourt North

Barkers Creek Reservoir is a stocked fishing location annualy receiving Brown Trout, Murray Cod and Golden Perch. The reservoir is currently only 42% full.

Maybe that's why I didn't get a bite. Next time I might take the kayak.

Tooliorook Lake Volcanic Plains Victoria

Lake Tooliorook is located 5km from Lismore (Victoria). The lake offers good fishing, duck hunting (in season) and superb views across to Mount Elephant, an extinct volcano.

The Odometer

The BFG KO2 tyres fitted in October 2018 I reckon I still got 10 to 20K left.

Venison

The word derives from the Latin venari, meaning to hunt or pursue.

Venison tends to have a finer texture and be leaner than compared to say beef.

A healthy deer has very healthy meat for human consumption as they are inherently wild animals living on grass and wild plants, their meat is higher in moisture and protein.
