There a number on my local river tone, and it is very rare to see them anytime.
A couple of seasons back I was fishing one of my favourite trotting swims, it is a small swim only 30ft wide and a trot of around 20-25yds,
I was happily catching grayling, trout, dace, small chub a good dozen in a couple of hours, when an otter popped up in my swim, my first otter sighting on the tone, I am not sure who was more shocked!
To say the least within 10 mins of the disturbance the fish began to feed.
Today I can still fish that swim and catch, I also have never seen an otter since here or elsewhere on the tone.
