:01:00. > :01:11.and investigation, as Roger Pinney reports.
:01:12. > :01:17.A break in the weather, and a search and rescue helicopter was able to
:01:18. > :01:20.fly over the scene. The area is known as the Celtic Badlands, so
:01:21. > :01:25.tough is the terrain there. At last a recovery operation could get
:01:26. > :01:29.underway. Convoys of vehicles making the tortuous journey to the site,
:01:30. > :01:34.carrying teams drafted in to help. This is as close as we are allowed
:01:35. > :01:41.to get to the crash site. From here, it is a half hour in a four by four
:01:42. > :01:44.and then to our climate for, scrambled to more than 400 metres
:01:45. > :01:47.above sea level. This evening, police confirmed that five bodies
:01:48. > :01:52.have not been recovered. More than 80 people have been involved in the
:01:53. > :01:55.operation, from the military, the police, coastguard and civilian
:01:56. > :01:59.mountain rescue teams. This photo, released at the request of the
:02:00. > :02:03.family of those who died, shows where the crash happened, and an
:02:04. > :02:07.indication of the conditions. That is something North Wales Police
:02:08. > :02:11.spoke about earlier in the day. We have got very skilled individuals of
:02:12. > :02:15.their the moment, but even they are finding it extremely difficult.
:02:16. > :02:21.The slopes are very slippery and treacherous, and the recent rains
:02:22. > :02:24.have not made the underfoot particularly easy either. Heather
:02:25. > :02:27.has become very slippery as well on the Downs, so it is particularly
:02:28. > :02:33.challenging up there. Those he died included Kevin and
:02:34. > :02:37.Ruth Burke from the Milton Keynes. The helicopter is registered to
:02:38. > :02:41.them. The others were members of their family, all travelling to a
:02:42. > :02:45.family baptism in Ireland. At home, there was this reaction.
:02:46. > :02:48.Very, very sad. And of course, terrible shock for people who live
:02:49. > :02:54.in this community. As you can see, it is a very small one, and Kevin
:02:55. > :02:58.Andrews had only just moved into this magnificent new house that they
:02:59. > :03:03.had been building for the last couple of years. -- Kevin and Ruth.
:03:04. > :03:08.For the aviation authorities, the main task now is to discover what
:03:09. > :03:14.went wrong. A team is already at work. Once recovered, the wreckage
:03:15. > :03:15.will be minutely examined at the Air Accident Investigation branch
:03:16. > :03:19.headquarters at Farnworth in Hampshire.
:03:20. > :03:22.If it is a fairly straightforward accident, the investigators will
:03:23. > :03:27.have a reasonable idea of what happened fairly soon. However, they
:03:28. > :03:35.have to cover all possibilities, and the investigation will follow the
:03:36. > :03:40.same processes as it would if they weren't certain of what happened.
:03:41. > :03:43.But nothing will happen quickly. The terrain and weather conspired to
:03:44. > :03:45.make this all an exacting, arduous operation.

:04:53. > :04:59.It's because of increasing concerns about fish stocks.
:05:00. > :05:01.Natural Resources Wales says the situation is
:05:02. > :05:10.approaching "crisis point". Aled Scourfield reports.
:05:11. > :05:14.These fishermen have the guardians of a tradition that has been
:05:15. > :05:19.practised in the rivers of Wales since pre-Roman times. The Teifi
:05:20. > :05:24.coracle men still use their ancient craft to capture salmon and sea weed
:05:25. > :05:28.with nets. The river Teifi is often described as the Queen of Welsh game
:05:29. > :05:31.fishing rivers, but there is mounting concern about salmon
:05:32. > :05:35.numbers. These coracle men say they have taken the difficult the season
:05:36. > :05:39.to release the salmon they catch. From the 1st of April till the 1st
:05:40. > :05:43.of June, we have to release any salmon that we catch anyway, as part
:05:44. > :05:47.of the licence regulations. However, from that time on till the end of
:05:48. > :05:52.the season, we have made the decision now to actually release all
:05:53. > :05:55.salmon that we catch, and put them back into the system so they can
:05:56. > :05:59.follow on to spawn. What has prompted that? Is it purely
:06:00. > :06:02.witnessing this decline in the last few years?
:06:03. > :06:05.Yeah, definitely. A decline in the fish we are catching, you want to
:06:06. > :06:11.make sure this fishing style is kept for our children to be able to be
:06:12. > :06:14.done in generations to come. Latest figures from Natural
:06:15. > :06:19.Resources Wales show that there has been a sharp decline in the number
:06:20. > :06:24.of salmon caught on the Teifi. There were around 115 declared net catches
:06:25. > :06:31.of salmon in 2014. That's more than halved to around 45 in 2015.
:06:32. > :06:35.Declared rod catches of salmon are also down from 320 14 to around 210
:06:36. > :06:40.the following year. But what is responsible for the decline? There
:06:41. > :06:43.have been very well-publicised pollution incidents on other parts
:06:44. > :06:47.of the River Thames macro. More than a thousand fish were killed back in
:06:48. > :06:50.December by a slurry league. There is also concern global warming may
:06:51. > :06:55.be having an impact on the temperature of our rivers, which may
:06:56. > :07:00.in turn affects pawning. Coracle men on the Teifi say they have no option
:07:01. > :07:07.but to protect what is left. We would like the river to thrive,
:07:08. > :07:10.you know? It wouldn't be good to fish it out, for sure.
:07:11. > :07:13.Natural Resources Wales will be holding a consultation in me on
:07:14. > :07:17.whether to make catch and release compulsory across the country to
:07:18. > :07:22.help protect fish stocks, and they admit that salmon stocks on the
:07:23. > :07:25.Teifi are reaching crisis point. Generally, the number of salmon
:07:26. > :07:30.stocks in particular have been declining over the last few years.
:07:31. > :07:33.We picked this up to the ongoing monitoring work we undertake. So it
:07:34. > :07:36.is coming to a fairly critical position, especially in light of
:07:37. > :07:41.salmon stocks at the moment. Are we talking about a crisis?
:07:42. > :07:44.We're getting very close to a crisis situation, and it is now time that
:07:45. > :07:47.something is done to try and address this matter.
:07:48. > :07:50.These coracle men hope their decision to return their catches of
:07:51. > :07:52.salmon will be followed by other fishermen and the Teifi to help
:07:53. > :07:53.protect this river for future generations.
:07:54. > :08:01.Here's Derek Brockway with a full forecast.
:08:02. > :08:08.Hello. We are in for a mixed bag this weekend. That means sunshine
:08:09. > :08:11.and April showers tomorrow, but better on Sunday, fine and dry
:08:12. > :08:16.thanks to a ridge of high pressure. Tonight, more rain and showers on
:08:17. > :08:20.the way. Heavy in places. Drying up in the south-west later in the
:08:21. > :08:23.night, and slightly fresher than recent nights, with temperatures
:08:24. > :08:27.dropping into single figures. Tomorrow, there will be showers
:08:28. > :08:30.around in the morning. They could be having in places, but some dry,
:08:31. > :08:36.bright weather and sunshine as well. Across the rest of the UK, a similar
:08:37. > :08:40.story, really. Sunshine and showers, some showers heavy, hail and thunder
:08:41. > :08:44.possible. Some parts will be lucky and stay dry. The best of the
:08:45. > :08:50.sunshine on some of the coast. Top temperatures, 13 in Belfast, up to
:08:51. > :08:54.15 in London. Close to home, case of dodging showers tomorrow afternoon,
:08:55. > :08:57.and they could be heavy, with hail and thunder. Part of the north and
:08:58. > :09:03.West will become sunny later in the afternoon, with highs of 11 in
:09:04. > :09:06.Aberystwyth, 14 in Newport. Tomorrow evening, Lenny showers in South
:09:07. > :09:10.Wales will fade away, leaving us all dry overnight. The sky will be clear
:09:11. > :09:15.and it will turn chilly, with a touch of ground frost in the
:09:16. > :09:19.countryside. Sunday looks a nice day, dry with sunny spells. Some are
:09:20. > :09:21.building up inland. Temperatures not that high, but in the sunshine and
:09:22. > :09:28.light winds, it will feel pleasantly warm. On Monday, more dry weather to
:09:29. > :09:31.come, but it may not stay dry all day. Rain over Ireland will spread
:09:32. > :09:36.across Wales during the evening and on Monday night. And then beyond
:09:37. > :09:42.that, high pressure over the Atlantic is going to take control.
:09:43. > :09:45.So, sunshine and April showers tomorrow. Sunday, the better day of
:09:46. > :09:46.the weekend. A drop of rain on Monday night, and the rest of the
:09:47. > :09:48.week, fine and dry. We're back tomorrow evening
:09:49. > :09:49.at quarter to seven. From all of us on the
:09:50. > :09:54.programme goodnight -
