All of us can make speeches... Perhaps it is because for the last month I have felt unable to safely venture out to fish rivers hovering around the 3 metre mark that I feel the closed season is an issue worth discussing while I'm twiddling my thumbs away from my favourite hobby. The Teme report has lots of content based around river management - it is mainly concerned how the course of the river should be managed and appropriate habitats created. Heavy flooding and predation in recent years are surely also major factors in its decline. Also the presence of invasive species such as Himalayan Balsam are major worries. I believe that if the current trend of weather continues, fewer and fewer tackle shops will exist in the vicinity of the Wye and Severn as anglers stay at home - surely that is something to be concerned about too?
