Go and sit dead quiet by the Delph on a Summers evening and keep your eyes on a bit of bank you've baited with a smelly old mackerel or similar. You'll see one or two then. Used to fish for pike up there with a mate and we would see them regularly. Pine Lake (Resort) up by Carnforth had a number of the vermin around it too.

Cat food mashed and put on a raft for a few mornings. Then from the other side of the lake shot it off the raft at 4.30am. With the HMR. At about 100 yards. Summertime of course.

Yeah I knew that mate, fished a few places years ago where the moorhens and coots had suddenly vanished. Just never seen one, or an otter. Not yet.

It hopped up onto the first timber bridge and sat there for a few moments. I didn’t have my gun loaded and by the time I tried to it was off. Now I load before I leave my car, just in case.
