The Environment Agency approved ‘netting’ last week took about a thousand pounds (in weight) of fish out of the Pond and this helps the older fish and reduces the biomass.

The younger fish have gone to the Cotswold. The seven or eight terrapins remain too.

Petersfield’s Volunteer Fishing bailiff, the skillful Richard Welsh  told us more including concerns about the water level, the overall health of the pond (which is good) and the code about responsible enjoyment and keeping dogs - especially now in bird breeding season - under control and out of the water.

Richard spoke to Mike Waddington on the Heath with hundreds of people enjoying the chilly but sunny day.
