Do fish hibernate?

[Malcolm Banks]

Yes V-W, a still night might be favourite, with talk of wind and water voles there may be a hint of plagiarism that AA Milne might not have appreciated

Moorhens and coots might be swimming around.. makng ripples.. and that croaking noise they do!

[vole-woman]

I hadn't thought about fowl. Good one! If coots and moorhen are out and about in the winter, that'll do.

(Psst, Malcolm, it's Kenneth Grahame you're thinking of...)

Duuh, that'll teach me to tangle with a woman of letters I should have known better having done WITW during my O level. (was a few years ago mind). Ah well V-W, besides a bit of fun, you did end up with a useful constructive suggestion I hope you mention nakedgardener in your acknowledgments

I'll add nakedgardener to my list of acknowledgements (though what my editor will make of that I dread to think!!!)

roach and rudd tend to shoal in deeper water during the coldest part of the winter but come up into the upper layers if a warm westerly moves in and makes the surface layer warmer. Pike go on a feeding frenzy and make all sorts of commotion in these conditions. You're probably on your second book by now though!
