Dubba 72 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 We've been hitting the mink hard for about the last 8 years on a 2 mile stretch of the Wye. Unfortunatly no sign of water voles yet, the mink are never ending. That's good news that they seem to be on the up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dubba 72 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Private there's a few of us that run a fishing syndicate upstream from Ross rowing club. We've tried to get grants and outside help but know one was interested. It's good work for the terriers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frann 882 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 I knew a guy who had a pet vole as a kid once. His parents wouldn't let him have a hamster so he caught a vole lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
