we never had the chance of ever winning the fight with the cormorants in the first place but it seams like nothing is being done the canal at Beeston fished well last year through out the winter it has not fished that well for 15 years I never saw a cormorant on it I fished it every day I have been on it this back end first two times the first thing I saw was a cormorant come from below the water out of my peg as I was setting up the has not been a patch on last season I know the water levels have been different but is not the reason some friends that live on the narrow boats that I have from the past twenty years tell me they see cormorants at four in the morning first light up in the lock the the attenbourough gravels have long stopped fishing my old my garden Bennett stoped fishing them years a go so that enough for me to know it done well the nature reserve have bought it now with a large sum of the money given by biffer I was told so I don't think there will be no more fishing we don't seem to have any say no more not that we did but I remember **** Clegg the then England team manager asking anglers all to put ten pounds each to buy the Holme peirpoint water sports centre so we can have base and perhaps be heard but what ever we anglers say falls on deaf ground it has for years we just keep paying our licence fees for what I know for what do you
