Meppstas 4,962 Posted September 14, 2018 Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 I was up at Liena a few days ago to check the area out since they built the new bridge there after losing the old wooden bridge back in 2016.. Took a couple of photos to compare it to what is it was before the June 2016 floods.. certainly has changed and not for the better either.. will take many years to come back I feel.. though the small shrubs will come back fairly quick.. I'm really glad I take my camera with me on every trip to a river, good to look back on many areas on this river to what they were and what they are today.. plus I have photos of all the original old wood bridges that were on the Mersey before being washed away,, they're all gone and are all new concrete bridges.... cheers Adrian Before the record floods.. looking downstream.. And the view today... Looking upstream from the old bridge.. And the view from it now,, Went for a walk to take this photo of the new bridge.. I doubt this one with get washed away if we ever have another massive flood.. Yorky, Squid Inc., mangrovejack and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meppstas 4,962 Posted September 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 Thanks lofty, the stretch of river in the third photo used to fish really well too, I here fished it twice last season and only caught five trout.. it will eventually fish much better. the only good outcome of the flood was that I can now get a lot further downstream (up to 3 kms) to what I could before the flood when it was near impossible to get through the scrub & dense foliage,,, cheers Adrian lofty64 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
