Trout Stage Daring Breakout at Fish Farm

Fish farm owner David Riley said: “I have been a farmer here for about 30 years and have never seen a fish make it to the other side but I know Dennis and if he says he has seen it I believe him.”
Icthyologists say this behaviour is instinctive. Now is the season for trout romance, and fish experts say the trout were attempting to swim upstream to spawn. The incredibly intelligent creatures were fooled into thinking the water from the pipe was a waterfall that was coming from upstream. They were programmed by nature to try and get past the “waterfall”, much like their relatives the Atlantic salmon. Paul Knight of the Salmon and Trout Association said: “They will follow instinct. I don’t think they would be looking up at the pipe and thinking, ‘Come on lads, let’s go for it.’”
