New crucians and tench for the Kingfisher
April 12, 2015 2:14 pmMembers have already begun catching a few rudd and tench in the Kingfisher and further restocking last week should help even further. Over the weekend, 300, 4-6 inch crucian, and 300, 6-8inch tench were put into the pond to help establish it for the future.
Some of the crucians,
and the last of the tench.

ah knobby you’re right, I see there’s an offer on maggotdrowners to participate in a crucian conservation project. Well worth the effort !!
You’ve seen it too Andy it seems that where Phoenix lead others follow. First the Tenchfishers were looking to secure tench waters and now the world’s wanting to make sure crucians don’t become extinct!
