Today River Basin Management Service came out to the fishery to do a kick test with our U18s - and it poured with rain like we have been praying for for weeks 🙄

The take aways are - the bogs need to be wetter! We are in great shape - we have seven critters, that will feed and support the wildlife in the rivers. The knowledge that these guys have is pretty unlimited. Every question fired at them was met with an interesting answer. Mars bar to the first one to come up with all 7 critters …..

is on and remains a huge part of why people come to the cottage.
