Overview

Estuary Anglesea River Estuary
Site Fishing platform upstream of Great Ocean Rd Bridge
Observation ID #15131
Date and Time Wednesday 16th November 2022 10:10am
Approved Pending

Notes

Bottom turbidity was very high. we took two samples  The bottom of the river was very silty - so I suspect it was flowing fast enough to stir up the bottom. It's very difficult to work out the FLOW at any time and at any of the Sites.
