Besides the obvious choices of perch, gudgeons and galaxias, I would say:

Freshwater Cobbler....Tandanus bostocki or
Nightfish....Bostockia porosa

I would lean towards the nightfish!

FRESHWATER COBBLER IS THE ONLY ONE I KNOW OF, BUT DO THEY SCHOOL?

what happened was ,earlier in the game i asked was it a galaxias brevipinnis and the answer was no, so i thought i might have been barking up the wrong tree and took it as a no to all galaxias.
anyway the fat lady has sung and now we're onto a new one ,so if its a fish from WA i will be sure to be in touch.

thanks all
wayne.
