    DIRTY RIVER

    The headwaters 25km by road had 22mils of rain overnight but takes a while to get down to the middle Manawatu R. Was clean last night.
    Gave it a flick then called it a day.

    Yep ironic isn't it @Dundee
    3 dairy farms in a row here all fenced off and 2 sheep and beef directly opposite side stock graze the river banks..then there's direct town wastage from Shannon further down...but let's blame the dairy farmers..

    Yep true Brad's I'd say most if not all waterways on dairy farms are now fenced off, and with the One plan it's getting better. But everyone has a part to play including the city dwellers..

    Been to Oringi and back yesterday and today. Every river and stream from there to HB looks like shit. Might have to look for a deer instead this weekend.

    Best bet possibly Maunga Rd clears a bit quicker further up river, less streams feeding into it🖒
