Summary

COI synopsis: A concerted attack on wasted energy - in four very different fields... Spend a whole day out fishing in water where there aren’t any fish and you may consider that just a bit of waste of energy... A neat new probe dips into the water to tell the angler, at the start, whether there are likely to be fish around, or whether to move on elsewhere.
