today,myself and yoggy were doing some backbrook fishing for chub.we were using a roving approach and while we were changing swims etc... i couldn`t help but notice the amount of weed/reeds that seemed to have been cleared from stretches of the water we were fishing.they were piled up on the bankside in dead/decaying heeps and amongst this stuff were loads of empty water snail shells and plenty of swan mussel shells as well.
i dont know if anglers had dragged the stuff out of the swims or the controling club (i suspect the latter)but i always thought that swan mussels were pretty rare nowadays and protected by law....or am i wrong???
