Darling - Anabranch

Yes, we all remember the days when the Yabbies were in vast proportions in the Anabranch. Catching them by the trailer load. Sadly those days are history.
1. The Anabranch is now a pipelined water system servicing all the Station owners along it. It only has water when there is sufficient water in the Upper Darling system and is required for Environmental flows. At the moment at Bunnerungee there is water but not a lot.
2. I haven't heard of any yabbies being caught in The Anabranch for a few year at about the Last time they released the Environmental Flows. Even then you had to work hard for them.
3. Most of the the land along the Anabranch is on private property, so you would need to get permission from owners to camp

Are the Bunnerungee Bridge. Yabbies by the boat load, a cooker made out of a wire net sitting in a 13 gallon oil drum. Great childhood memories.

You might have some luck at the Nearie Lakes Reserve.

My blogs here should give you an idea;

Exploring the Anabranch

Keep in mind that things have improved a lot environmentally since then and I'd suggest that Nearie lakes are still holding water (you'll need to check that though).

Great country. Enjoy, Mick.
