| Recent River flooding! How do, I have recently come back from a walk at my local nature reserve (its so small it shouldn't really be called that but still) and I couldn't believe the amount of junk and old dead tree the recent flooding has pushed through and up on to the river bank! I've tried speaking to the EA but I don't think it fall with in their remit, also Yorkshire Wildlife Trust haven't really responded to me either (which is quite frustrating). For full details check out my recent blog post at - http://coarsefishingpaul.blogspot.com But if anyone could suggest who I would need to speak to, to maybe move things along. my concern is that when the school kids start going back there all those logs are going to find thier way into the river and mess up swims further down. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Paul __________________ Like fishing? - Check out my blog at http://coarsefishingpaul.blogspot.com/     |

| Re: Recent River flooding! I would say that unless the river stretch is managed by an angling club, it would be the council you would need to be getting on to about it to get things cleared. Tell them it's a Health & Safety hazzard and they will probably be down there like a shot...on the other hand, just think what nice little fish hideouts those logs will make if they end up back in the river, could turn a bad swim into a good one - as long as you can avoid the snags!! Good luck getting it sorted. |
