Murndal. 

Walk from Parringtons down to the Wannon. 

No one went there because all the gates were locked. 

Ballie would get 'Red Fin' up to 3 pounds from through the summer time. 

2 o'clock was best in the afternoon when they came on the bite.  

Ballie mainly used the kidney spinner. 

After he got a 'feed' he came home because they were no refrigerators or freezers at that time. 

In winter he fished for eels. 

Ballie cooked the 'Red Fin' by using flour, egg and bread crumbs cooking them in hot fat. 

He got 'Rainbow Trout' from the Konongwotong Reservoir using a spinner and mudeyes.  One night he got eight.

Ballie loves fishing at the Glenelg.  The biggest Mulloway he got was a 20 pounder down at the mouth.  He also gets heaps of bream there.  7 hp Evinrude motor and 12 foot boat.  Tony Hutchins still goes with him.
