Had a great day fishing at Kai Iwi Lakes, landing three fat healthy trout. In their wisdom, Kaipara District Council have refused to allow Fish & Game to continue stocking the lakes. Since the trout cannot breed in this location, this is the end of trout fishing in the lakes and that effectively means the end of trout fishing in the whole of Northland. Trout have co-existed with indigenous species since they were first stocked in 1968, so I cannot understand the logic behind this decision.
