has anyone ever had any problems with there EA officer?
I ask this question because our local council asked the EA for help destocking one of there lakes. The EA recommended a fishery management consultant who netter a few carp, pike bream and perch then flushed the rest of the lakes inhabitants down a very small stream. This happened on Friday. The Angling club that leases the water found out on Tuesday and that was by 3ed party gossip. One of there fishery management team visited the venue on his way home from work that day. On arrival the lake was completely drained. When he inspected the outflow stream he saw several dead roach. Closer inspection revealed 1000s of roach and perch in distress in only inches of water. Within one hour several volunteers were on hand to try and rescue as many fish as possible. An estimated 300lb of roach and perch were saved from a certain death. They only stopped when the light faded and it became dangerous to carry on. These fish were rescued from no more than 30 yards of stream. When they left it was obvious that there were still many 100s of fish still left on the receding waters. Later that night it was revealed that the EA had witnessed these fish being flushed into the stream and did nothing. Has anything like this ever happened to you? |
