Release of the trout

On Friday the 11th of March in the morning we went to a quiz in Shotts and we were just behind St Patrick’s by two points but it was fun. In the quiz team there was Devlin, Jamie, Abby and Emma.

In the afternoon it was time to release the fish. We have been hatching brown trout  for four weeks  and a man called Willie came to help us each week. He works for the River Clyde Foundation . The first thing he had to do was to get the fish into little tubs and afterwards we went across the road a to a little burn that will go to a big reservoir down stream. When we were at the burn he was talking about where the eggs are laid and this is called a red. he also told us what will happen  to them . Then what we did was crouched down and then  we set them free. When we were down we took a very good selfie and then Willie said, ” I have never tried to do that.”  We got back and we were all taking about it and we thanked Willie and then it was time to go home.

I would like to say a big thanks to Miss King and Wille for helping us to keep the trout healthy.   🙂
