What time?

[St_Paul]

that could be worth a nosey, lake forsyth and birdlings flat used to be a major eel fishery for the ngai tahu. There was a project in the works to put in a huge culvert between lake forsyth and the sea as this is where they used to catch a load of eels before us white fullas filled in the natural break

[Jones Jr.]

It’s called “Hunger for the Wild”

On at 7:00pm this Saturday (15th Sep) on TV ONE.

Thanks for that, I might watch it. So are you sure that its about eeling at birdlings flat, not some other place?

[Jones Jr.]

They will be doing it in Lake Ellesmere or in Lake Forsyth. Not in the sea, it was just a promo for the show. They looked to be in a lakeish surrounding. Not sure why they say Birdlings Flat in the promo, it’ll be close to there anyway.

Cheers
