Yabbies – While yabbies provide a food source for fish in dams and ponds, there is a growing awareness of the table qualities of the yabbie itself. Yabbies are fine eating and a dam full of them will provide many delicious meals. Yabbies breed prolifically – a dam can reach full capacity very quickly if stocked with a few kilos of adults.
Yabbies are scavengers and eat almost anything. Most dams, even new ones, have some food for yabbies. There is no real advantage in adding supplementary food and there is always the risk that the uneaten food will result in pollution. Unlike fish, yabbies can leave the water and walk over land.
