Looked and searched and fished and fished for the so called trout in eastons Creek and nothing
Hi Zach, they are there! This site was chosen after brook trout were confirmed with electrofishing.
Eastons creek also goes very dry and stagnant aswell so I don’t understand where they go to then if they are here
Your intonation is unnatural and quite horrible.
Please answer my comment
Thank you, observed just hatched snappers being taken by blackbirds myself more than once. Found so many raided nests in my garden by raccoons. Another one; although I look as closely as I can, I shredded quite a few in my lawn mower. Tried those boxes as described but the raccoons had no problems raiding those. I have 21 acres of which 20 are considered “significant” wetlands. On my 1 acre of gras an gravel roads I have over 15 nests but many do not survive till hatching and even those last meters have a high mortality.
good job

Your Content is good
You do a great job and It is very good for people.
The webinar is very nice....
Wonderful lesson!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you CBC and Watershed Canada for taking the time to present this very valuable information. I feel the recognition of the value of community newspapers is long overdue and the solution may be right before us as to the how to, to resurrect local newspapers/community papers to share information as has been suggested during your presentation. Online is not a solution because of the shortfalls still present. I am happy to work with a group to find and implement a good response to this need.

Very Nice
thank you for this sharing... Kerry and Abraham ♥♥♥
When the weather is warm a smart idea is to put aside buckets of dirt for your winter walkway.
The only way Asian Carp are going to be controlled is if their natural predator is brought in the Weels Catfish that can grow to over 500 pounds. Its been shown that where they have been introduced they don't affect game fish numbers or size. Trout, Pike and Bass avoid them and can easily outmaneuver them .
What about Common Carp one of the most destructive fish? They have been here so long people are starting to accept them and that shouldn't be allowed to happen. It used to be if they were caught it was required to kill them and now I see people throwing them back and they need to be controlled along with Tench which should also be killed to keep their numbers down too. People should get fined for returning either of them to the water.

Thank you for this!!
Great presentation.........more focus needs to be on this issue..........we are hurting ourselves...........keep going Lauren & Watersheds
Lauren, thank you for encouraging more conversations surrounding salt entering our freshwater systems. If anyone has any questions about the benefits of anti-icing with brines or how treated salt (think brine-coated salt) is helping municipalities reduce their salt usage, check out the resources on our UA-cam channel.
great presentation
Check your email inbox I have sent some important information about your UA-cam channel
Great message from Daryl Neve .... "take a hint from nature." Well done!
great work restoring our lakes.
Very informative. Great speaker thank you.
Great information, photo evidence, and excellent FREE downloadable resources. Can't wait to share this recording and resources with my lake association and greater community members! See you in September for part 2!
Could you ask Scouts Canada to clean up Secrest Park?They have tires in the watershed and some fire hazards from abandoned shelters .
