7/7/21 The Currane
Anglers were all quiet on all fronts. So we head across and congratulate England
getting into the Final, thankfully they did not loose their Bacon. Now to the
email department on the thoughts of a Currane Angler. The stage is all yours Lytton.
I am a very
keen fly fishing angler and have loved the Waterville area lakes and rivers
since I was a child. I used to go fishing there frequently up until about 6
years ago.
I am writing
to you because I am very concerned for the sea trout (and salmon) as I have
been trying to document myself on the serious decline in numbers of fish and
their health. Is this due to the fish farms off Deenish Island I know that sea
trout numbers in the west of Ireland, in areas such as Connemara, have already
all but disappeared over the decades, coincidentally on time with the arrival
of “aquaculture” and fish farms just off the cost and in the bays.
How is it
possible that this man-made decline cannot be stopped. I am deeply saddened. Do
let me know if you think there is anything one can do to help promulgate the
news of this disastrous situation to a broader audience. Perhaps we need
numbers to turn some eyes in the political sphere...
By the way,
really appreciate your blog and the effort and consistency you put into the
updates. Kind regards
Lytton Scott
