I saw them catch one fish, a beautiful brown trout. It was hauled in with the net, transferred to the bucket which was then exchanged with another bucket by someone on the adjacent path.Her task was to record details , tag it and release it back into the river. Apparently these trout are of particular interest as they have never been artificially stocked in this location.

Izaak was a gentleman, this would have horrified him, as it does me.
