Help with Heron please!

 
Hi, I am new to gardenBanter through desperation at losing all my fish
(30+) to a Heron. We have a decoy - obviously useless! but wondered if
anyone has had success with anything else? We want to re-stock but only
when we have made it safe from this horrible bird. Thanks.

Herons are not horrible birds. Grey herons live in my area. I think they
rather majestic in flight. I enjoy watching the kingfishers dive in my pond
and pull out a fish. Get a dog.

If you like weekends (8 hr./day & 40 hr./week), then thank a labor union.
They paid for it in blood. Real working class heros.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in
the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are
cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is
spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of
its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the
clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower, 16 April 1953

A guy I worked with had the same problem.  He raised trout for re-sale.
One day he got tired of the bird after the trout and decided to take a
shot at it with a .22 rifle.  By the way, I think these birds are
protected!  When he shot, he missed the bird but hit an old neighbor man
walking down the road.  Needless to say:  he got himself in a whole mess
of trouble.  Luckly the man he shot recovered from the bullet wound.
