Damn blue herons have been eating my koi.
I’ve probably lost 20 over the past 2 years.

Great Blue Herons are voracious fish eaters.

Simple solution: Hire a security guard. Won’t have to be 24 hours. They’re gone before dark.

Neighbor bought sporty koi to the tune of a couple grand for his pond.
He went on vacation and a family of otters paid his pond a visit and ate all the expensive koi.
Man he was mad.

That is why a keep a 17 WSM zeroed at 100 by the front door. These things get in my stock tank and eat my perch I use for fishing cats in the river.

At 300 yards the 17 WSM is 4" low. The dam is 312 yards. Piece of cake
