The migration of whitebait has ever been an interesting topic to fishermen. Recently Mr T. Mac Neil, who attended to development v orks on his coal lease at Ten Mile, discoveied whitebait above the falls in the upper reaches of Te.n Mile Creek (states the Greymcuth Evening Star). They could not get up the falls, as the torrent, of water was top strong. Mr Mac Neil watched one day, and in a pool at the bottom of the falls in the spray line, clear of the current, he noticed myriads of whitebait gradually emerging from the water on to the wet, rocky surface with their tiny flits spread and wriggling themselves forward and up the wet face of about 12 feet, as steep almost as the wall of a housie.
