    Fishing the Catlins Fishing in the Catlins Surrounded by remote rainforest and rolling hill country, anglers seeking solitude and scenery will find the streams of the Catlins rewarding. With consistently high annual rainfall and plenty of valley systems, anglers following the Southern Scenic Route between Balclutha and Footrose will discover numerous waterways to explore. All of the significant streams and rivers hold good populations of resident brown trout between 1-2 kg, and in their lower reaches sea-run brown trout which can reach 3-4kg.

Untold tonnes of gold has been washed down the Clutha River (both from it’s present day location and multi- previous routes) on the Catlins north-eastern boundary. Also the Mataura river on its west boundary used to drain the Wakatipu basin and is fed into from the Nokomai. This has resulted in the beaches of the Catlins being quite literally sprinkled in gold! Many a claim has been staked and money and infrastructure invested to acquire this treasure. However by the time the gold made it all the way to the coast from the mountains of origin and tides and currents transported it up and down the coast, only the finest of specks remain. The gold is there to be sure! But the effort put in for the quantities returned is just not sustainable. Energy put into ship building and logging initially was far more profitable. As elsewhere, farming was where the real wealth was to be gained. Today tourism is a key player also in the development and sustainability of the thriving Catlins region. You have probably been here for a look-see before? Come again on the Goldfields Cavalcade and discover some truly hidden gems!

    Surface Water Quality in South West Otago

    Surface Water Quality in South West Otago June 2004 Surface Water Quality in South West Otago ISBN 1-877265-15-2 June 2004 Surface Water Quality in South West Otago i Executive Summary Water quality monitoring in the Wairuna Stream, Waipahi River, Heriotburn and Crookstonburn began in 1996 as part of the state of environment monitoring programme. In response to concerns that water quality may be deteriorating, a more intensive six month surface water quality monitoring programme commenced on the Wairuna Stream in April 2000. Poor water quality results from this programme led to the Waipahi/Clydevale monitoring programme, which encompassed a larger catchment, this ran from October 2002 to October 2003. The third water quality monitoring programme began in May 2000 in the Heriotburn and Crookstonburn catchments. Otago Regional Council has also been working with landowners and farmers in the area to minimise the potential impacts of high density farming in an area which is predominantly tile drained. Water quality monitoring focused on six sites in the Wairuna Stream, ten sites in the Waipahi/ Clydesvale and 14 sites in the Heriotburn and Crookstonburn. Spot water sampling was conducted at all sites with water samples tested for a range of physico- chemical and microbiological parameters. Periphyton and macroinvertebrate sampling was also conducted. The monitoring results indicate that water quality in all three catchments is poor with a deterioration in water quality with distance downstream. For example there was a marked increase in Eschericia coli with distance downstream in all watercourses other than the Kaihiku and Waipahi. In addition, the Heriotburn and Wairuna catchments had extremely high median concentrations of indicator bacteria, all sites exceeding MfE/MoH action/red mode levels (550 E.coli/100ml).
