'LONGFIN EELS DUCK CREEK WHITBY'
Could Whitby Residents keep an eye out for the PROTECTION of our Longfin Eels.
Local teenagers have been seen hiding under the bridge with Fishing Rods and Hooking the Eels.
Other Culprits have been seen throwing Chicken Carcass and Sea Urchins into the creek and netting the eels.
Please take Photos of these culprits and forward onto PORIRUA CITY COUNCIL, POLICE AND PREDATOR FREE WHITBY.
The Council have removed a large number of HOOKS FROM THE EELS and are still working to remove more.
THE EXACT LOCATION IS THE BRIDGE NEXT TO SAMUEL MARSDEN COLLEGE.
THESE EELS ARE PROTECTED AND ENDANGERED SO PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT!
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
33.7% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
65.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.1% Other - I'll share below

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
