>>2624546I'm the same but in Queensland, does anyone know what to look out for in waterways near a city, in terms of contaminants? I live in Townsville and the Ross River runs through the city. I have a technical report from the council website of the last year's water quality tests but I'm not sure what to look for and what levels to be concerned about.
What about eating fish caught near a port? I know that the less time an animal is alive, the less contaminants it'll pick up, so squid are apparently the best in that regard.
I guess you can't go wrong with chasing flatheads for fillets too.
