f***ing not happy

[Aled 522]

Interesting comments guys, as i was growing up,  in my square mile nearly all the anglers i knew took part in another field sport or had done so in the past. A lot of us went on those marches and showed our support for Hunting. Its not the same now as far fewer anglers nowadays take part in another field sport. 

Cheers. Aled

Been intouch with environmental agency an hour ago kicking off to f**k. Lost all the fish in this part of the river. All the way down past this outlet. Above about ad say 2 mile away there's some fish. But down near the weir we've lost the barbel an chub and the rest ive said. 

Ive said before mate report it to the Angling Trust the EA wont do anything unless 1000's of fish float to the surface and there is more of a visual aspect to it. The Angling Trust force the EA into investigating or they prosecute them direct instead of the polluter.

Environmental agency are going to view the area. Specially with the drone footage a pal of mine has taken on the Fifish drone. No life at all its sickening mate. Like a say we had chub , barbel , grayling , eel , just at the bottom of the weir.

There's a few break offs here channels that go down then back into the main river. In them break offs that fork off. There used to be a family of barbel an trout , chub . Then just back on the main stretch eel , grayling , roach,  bream , perch.

Some parts of the Calder are holding decent fish. Look at this young man beaming from his biggest wild browie. We need to fight for the next generations. Hopefully they won't have to fight then.

Mad isn't it only two country's pay for their water Chile and the UK and what a f***ing mess its in.

I remember when it got privatised and in Devon South West Water said because of the large coast line Devon and Cornwall has we would have to pay more. Pay more to clean the coast and rivers up that was 1989 so they had all the money and sky rocketed that. Not one reservoir since privatisation and the rivers and coastal water f****d.

I live in Spain and pay for water  mate. Not sure where you’ve got that from.

To add; Barcelona has the worst water quality in all of Spain and one of, if not the worst in Europe. Minerals and metals clog taps, showers, your hair and body. I’ve got filters everywhere and change them at least four times a year. If you have an old place you’ll have the green copper stains around taps etc… plus it ain’t cheap. Rivers are rank aswell esp’ after the annual floods. Fanny pads and bog roll up and down the banks.
