Fish will be on the move in the lower Loddon River over the Easter weekend, with an environmental flow to be delivered to support the ongoing flood-recovery in the lower-Loddon River.

Flows will ramp up from today (Monday) to a peak on Wednesday of about 400 ML a day for six days, then it will be gradually ramped back down to 50 ML a day over the course of 12 days.

The flow aims to trigger the upstream movement of golden and silver perch and Murray cod in the lower-Loddon River and Pyramid Creek system, and it will also increase river productivity and support water bugs.

The flow is not anticipated to impact on river access for recreational users.
