Is there anything better than fishing for redfin, otherwise known as redfin perch with a handful of kids? Kids are soooo much fun to fish with! 
Things were quite slow and we did not catch a lot, but the kids all had a wonderful afternoon and that is the most important thing. For what it is worth, I caught none. I am captain fishless!
Redfin perch are an introduced species of fish to Australian waters and are a declared noxious species in some states. 
 They can have detrimental effects on native fish, but they don't always. In fact, in this spot the redfin perch simply can not establish a population in many of the waterways around the region due to the increased numbers of native fish, particularly Murray cod and trout cod that predate on them. 
 Have a look at this clip, how much fun do the kids look like they're having? They're having the time of their lives.
