So here we are for all our efforts last week! 🔨💪🏻…. This little job we had been planning to do the last couple of years and we was hoping that a late summer week would finally become available as it would be our best chance of low water level… well we couldn’t of planned it any better as this has been the driest summer I can ever remember…. This made things much easier when climbing under the platforms to removal all the old swims & steps…. Our original plan was to build 11 x 1.2m platform/landing stage in every swim, it soon become apparent on arrival that this wasn’t going to work when the water level was this low… anyhow the plan had now changed into double platforms in each swim (double the work) 😅…. With only 6 full days at our disposal we decided to focus on the 6 pegs everyone fishes I.e 2,3,5,6,8,9. We thought if we nut these out anything more was a bonus…. In the end we managed to get all these pegs done and we had enough time for single tier platform in pegs 1,7 & 10…. I’m chuffed with the result…. I want to say a massive thank you to all the lads involved last week but a extra special thanks to Jake at Jk engineering, Roger Appleby & Mark Lake Beauregard we could of never of done it without you boys 💪🏻…. Not forgetting Ian & Nade for taking care of us all week & my old mucka Terry who had us in tears of laughter all week 😂… I do have some drone shots which I’ll download and upload later this week 😉 🍾🇫🇷
