On Thursday 30th July I visited our Sulhamstead fishery to carry out some extra swim clearance and preparation. All the work concentrated on the area between the cattle drink and the 2nd gate. It was very noticeable whilst I was at the fishery, how many different year classes of fish there were cruising around in very large shoals. This is fantastic news for our Sulhamstead fishery, because it seems to be bucking the trend of decline on the River Kennet.
