lol very sophisticated esp the special weighting blocks sorry but some things just cry out to be laughed at. good luck to em though!

Maybe I'm missing something here but if Cormorant predation is such a problem, rather than starve the buggers would it not be easier just to shoot them? Job done.

[gazguildford]

i was going to say something similar, i definately think culling would help the only problem i see is the antis!

[little oik]

It could be said that it will be crueller in the long run to starve a bird to death than to shoot it .
A Chub will break you off round a single root albeit not smooth so wouldn't like to fish to close to these even if they claim them to be safe .

Good ol " Heath Robinson" know how though.

Good idea - bad design IMHO.

Better if they were a half toilet brush design with a heavy flat concrete base, 50% less chance of snagging!
