I watched the top of the lockgate throughout the video,Nothing happened.
but there seemed to be a bit of a commotion at the bottom.

My apologies for the quality of the last bit of video. I'ts quite a long one and so keeps buffering. It took forever to download too. I should point out that the intrepid angler is not moi but my son-in-law who has got these chub well sussed out. He has got hold of an underwater camera now so we hope to see some spectacular shots in the future..............I'll post 'em when I get 'em...........................birdsnest
