Moggy23 625 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Just read the entry conditions and no one knows the targeted fish until the night before.3.On Saturday, 14 April 2012 (after 6.00 pm) you will be sent via email your State and Murray Darling Basin target species plus your angler number. You can also log on to the website to download this information.Sounds interesting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
