can anybody rehome some pond fish ? I’m guessing there is around 10, possibly shubinkins , gold fish , sturgeon or similar. It’s hard to say without getting them all out.
Belonged to a neighbour who sadly passed away. Housing association will be filling the pond in soon and in their words “disposing of the fish “.

Must be collected from derrington ASAP . Someone please give the little guys a home!

That would be great ☺️. When do you want to collect ? I don’t have anything to transport them in so you would have to bring something

I'll need to sort some bags for transport, will it need to be done in daylight or do you think in an evening will be possible? Just thinking about catching them, and if we'd be able to see.

Won’t be able to see in dark but I can catch the fish and put them in buckets prior? , if evenings are better for you .

The fish bags 'should' arrive tomorrow, but I can't be sure. I'm busy Wednesday evening but could come Thursday? Both Gramaisc and thehooperman have kindly offered me a lift as fish don't travel well on a motorbike! If you are able to catch them first that would be very helpful, as I don't get back from Crewe til 6pm at the earliest.

Some people would beg to differ @tek-monkey

All fish repatriated to Holmcroft and currently acclimatising, should be able to release them in an hour or so.

Nice to meet you @Alee :)
And thanks to @Gramaisc for the lift, avoiding me having to recreate @Carole pic above :D

And you ! X you too @Gramaisc . Thanks for having fish . We will arrange visitation once they have settled in.
What’s this I hear about parachuting beavers? I seem to have missed out
