Re: Zander

It is in their interest, they are selling the Zander on so they are in the food chain, this is how they make their money on top of the £800 they get paid to electrofish the canals, they being MEM.

Re: Zander

Zander are in all canals, you do not divulge where the Zander are due to the C&RT employing MEM to electrofish the stretches and kill the Zander and also cause problems for other fish, they electrofish when perch are spawning, so do not under any circumstances tell people where you are catching Zander from unless you want to ruin your canal fishing.

Re: You Tube Vid - Barbel Fishing on a Tiny London River - If Only the Tame was this Good!!

Won’t say where I was fishing but the BAA should be looking at a couple of stretches on The Tame.

Re: You Tube Vid - Barbel Fishing on a Tiny London River - If Only the Tame was this Good!!

Have had 40lb bags of fish on hemp and tares from the Tame, barbel to 8lb, seen barbel well into double figures, first match weight on there was 23lb 12oz to win the match.

Re: Fazeley Canal what is being caught - can the C&RT conduct a Fish Survey?

One of the big problems with the Birmingham and Fazeley are crayfish, the greedy merchants from the C&RT and MEM have removed the Zander, one of the species that can control this vermin.

Electro fishing will always affect the fishing for many months after, it’s time the fish were left alone to find their own balance.
