[2:Its an abondoned quarry which was only given up 2 years ago..up till then it was bone dry. I guess I am one of your "Dickwads" despite having been a successful fishery manager who could, at certain times of the year, determine the sex of a number of species of fish. During my management duties I tried to work with in the parameters the EA uses today, even though the Authority didn't exist in those days. I noticed that in your totally unnecessary diatribe that you suggest that if the EA was interested in the water, they would have stocked it, "Years ago" and yet the pit was only flooded two years ago! Perhaps the EA has realised, as I did many years ago, that there is little point in putting fish in pits that contain no water. Being a "Dickwad" I don't know what happens to the fish if you do, but being a professional fishery manager, I do know that no one wants to fish them! I would suggest that there is little point in you watching this site for any advice in the future, because I am quite sure that you have alienated those who could help you to such an extent that anything you got from them may well be counter productive. Futhermore, if I was honest, I am sure, that like a number of others, I find it a worry that you are interested in a fish's sex!
