I forget to mention the fact that most of the rivers in this country are little more than open sewers!

There needs to be a massive cull of cormorants and goosanders as these birds have devastated our rivers and fisheries for decades.
They need to be stripped of their protection inland, as cormorants are a sea bird and belong at sea, not devastating our inland waters.

Fry released from hatcheries will never be enough, due to low survival rates.
Predation on our rivers is to much to high, from cormorants (who have been stripping our rivers for years), goosanders, and ever increasing otter numbers, salmon and many other species do not have a chance!

Good idea but how long before they have a data breach or are hacked?
The less companies and organisations that have peoples bank details the safer they will be!

United Utilities are a disgrace!
The company is not fit for purpose and is another failed legacy of Tories privatisation.

Our local Labour MP is just a joke!
He never replies to emails and just seems happy to take taxpayers money and do nothing, he shouldn't even be an MP!
I believe the majority of MP's do very little, apart from line their own pockets, so it's not surprising the Country is in such a mess!

A final AI picture that looks like it is from a stolen picture / image - but it has struggled with the hands, especially not holding the fly line.
But it does illustrate what AI is capable of. In this case it looks so real!

Yep! It is nothing short of theft as all AI can do is copy other similar designs and tweak them slightly.
There needs to be a few massive theft lawsuits against AI companies to kill the companies and stop this from happening!
This is AI and it's got the fly line mixed up
