Notes
Prior to our observation on the 16th November there had been substantial rain and also quite a few tidal inflows.
For the first time in years a fisherman had caught three of four bream and a salmon. We assume they were coming into their home estuary to spawn.
We have not seen fish in the river for years - because of the acidity.
Sorry about photos being upside down. I'm sure you can fix them faster than I.
