Apparently, the important
thing is to stop the heron wading in because that's when they catch the fish
and (I'm told) they have fish attracting scent glands in their ankles.
Hmm. Whoever told you that was having you on!
Possibly. But they were passing it on as a bit of 'folklore' they'd been
told themselves. I keep meaning to post a query on a wildlife site - must
get round tuit!
Err, you won't get a different answer, or at least not a different one
that is correct :-))
