The plan today is to set up for the two courses that are running tomorrow.  Paul will be up later to put in the traps so that the crayfish can be checked by his students tomorrow and Dai Roberts should arrive this afternoon to set up in the pavilion for the invertebrate monitoring course.  With plenty of water in the river the latter course should find plenty to sort and identify by New Inn bridge so hopefully we can have a very worthwhile discussion about the implications for the fishery of the volume and variety of what we find and what we can do to help our riverflies to recruit naturally.  I will report results over the weekend.

It's still wet here with a moderate westerly breeze and it shows little sign of letting up. Very much a day for wet weather gear.
