Habitat

Overstorey predominantly native (revegetated) provides extensive cover and shading across channel but understorey is very weedy.  Frequent large clumps of instream vegetation.   Sand and gravel substrate with introduced large boulders creating riffles and controlling erosion.  Banks largely protected but some erosion on northern bank.  High flow event within last week increased depth to ~0.5m which has flushed leaf litter from low banks.
