[QUOTE="AussieChris, post: 371002, member: 4915"] I remember back to when I had a run in with the Fisheries blokes on the Turon, suggesting my 10-metre tailings wash was going to silt up the river, kill native fish and ignite the furore of local farmers hehe For anyone who has not seen that river in flood.......I have seen trees and boulders near wide as a car tumble down that river like they were the devil's dice. We dig crevices out.....they fill back up again. I would never leave a massive hole that someone is going to break an ankle in or lose a kid in hehe but backfilling a crevice is redundant, at least it gives you or the next fella an idea about what's been worked or not. I'm honestly happy to not have to rework someone's crevices when I'm out at say, Mitchells Creek, why spend an hour or two picking over falsely packed crevices. Let nature do its job. Saying that.....I'm looking forward to a decent flood! [/QUOTE]
