The numbers are not out of hand, they are simply back up to the numbers they were at prior to the rivers being compromised in the 50's and for thousands of years prior.
A total of captive bread otters were released nationally and that stopped nearly 30 years ago. We NEED them to balance the eco system. They predate on mink the female of which can fit down a water vole burrow. Nature is wonderful and it's only our intervention that messes things up.
The only people that seem to grumble about otters are fishermen namely pond anglers. If your hobby was catching mice with rods and line then you'd probably take issue with owls and kestrals. Comment by Dave Charrington posted on on 19 March What about canoeists, paddle boarders, wild swimmers and dog walkers disturbing spawning fish during this time????
If we are to have a closed river season it should be closed to all not just Coarse anglers? Comment by Mike lynch posted on on 19 March Quite simply there should not be a close season. Cormorants, Otters etc have a far greater impact on fish stocks through the close season than the handful of anglers on the riverbank ever would. It also pushes anglers towards the commercial waters resulting in less anglers on the bank side that keep an eye on the upkeep of the natural waters.
Comment by David Hutchinson posted on on 30 April Personally I disagree how this spawning agenda is set up. Pike spawn in February. So would imagine Perch also. Because of Global warming waters are warmer and thus alters the breed time. Given economic impact of Covid. Without scientific proof of negative impact. Rivers should be allowed open all Year.
Rather strange the Close season merges to Salmon and Sea Trout running. So truth of matter is most likely keep us common folk off the Water. While the numble get the fly tackle. Comment by Gary Cyster posted on on 19 March When and where was the last time the EA prosecuted anyone for this offence on the River Trent and what was the penalty? Comment by Hugh Schkok posted on on 20 March I hate littering and the destruction of the foliage even though the requirement to cut some back is necessary.
However there is no excuse for littering. Fisheries should provide a contained space to dump litter in as only a few currently do. Next be sure that all anglers provide a valid ID and their vehicle reg number so that if after they have departed should they leve piles of rubbish they are dealt with to the finite level of the law.
I caught a carp last year and when I opened his mouth to get the hook out it had part of a plastic chocolate bar wrapper in its mouth and partially in his throat. How it took my bait I can only guess. I was sickened to the core. If the perpetrator simply bagged it up and took it away the less the stock may suffer. Comment by Pat D'Arcy posted on on 21 March How can I confirm whether or not I am able to try fly fishing on the "free water".
I have a 2 rod coarse license. Any advice would be welcomed.
