DSC_4550 Golden tench (Tinca tinca) are present in New Zealand in only very low numbers and were imported illegally recently. They occur in a few small ponds north of Auckland. They prefer slow-moving or still waters and are classified as ‘sports fish’, until recently they have been largely ignored by coarse fishermen, because they are timid and nocturnal. A licence is required to legally fish for them. Northland *
