Why is AFANT releasing this information independently of other GOV Orgs, sounds to me that the blow in president is trying to build his profile before an assault as a CLP candidate at the next election. This would be the equal of the white striped mussels if true, and that was handled by government. What's the go here????

Hey c9h14n at least he would do a better job than the current Elf from that region. He knows a bit more on fishing and the environment. I hear on the ABC this morning that these pests have been reported from above the bridge now on the Adelaide River.

Is it true that the AFANT number plate vehicle has been turned into a submarine to detect these fish LOL
