Salford University catching fish at FSC Preston Montford

Salford University third year biologists on a field trip to Shropshire are estimating the size of the fish population in the FSC Preston Montford Fish Pond. This is the first time in living memory that this field work has been affected by falling and deep-lying snow. 

The pictures show

•  students beating water on the edge of the pond 

• the seine net being put into and out of the water from a small inflatable boat

• a carp and a bream being weighed and measure
