Ahh right. Well it certainly isn't a tax dodging scheme. Even if it was, why would someone invest so much money into something they will never see a return on?
Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. The sad reality is that people will believe what they choose to believe.

What is this "front" you're referring to? Have you spoken to DF directly? Do you have some personal insight into his supposed fiendish or wicked plans that the rest of us aren't aware of?
The facts are actually pretty straightforward. DF has invested well over £10 million of his own money into Embryo, creating, improving and protecting fisheries for everyone to enjoy. The reality is that he will be long gone before Embryo ever see a return, if it ever does at all. That hardly fits the narrative you're alluding to.
As for the claim that there are no otters in Paddock Wood, or Kent more generally, that's simply not accurate. While sightings are relatively uncommon, there have been confirmed reports in the county, including along the Medway. Otters are highly mobile animals and can travel considerable distances (in some cases over 10 miles in a single day) in search of food. Just because they haven't been seen on the stretch of the Medway near Paddock Wood doesn't mean they haven't been there or won't turn up in the future.
The simple reality is that it only takes one otter to discover a fishery for the consequences to be significant. Dismissing that risk because sightings are infrequent doesn't make the risk disappear.

Give the office a call. They'll gladly run through the data and footfall of the lake.

They still do a lot of predation fencing jobs. Still helping out clubs as best as they can. No one else in the industry have donated over 8 fully fenced jobs for absolutely nothing.

Not open for membership immediately, yes, as they took on the existing membership from Shotgate Angling (as part of the package for donation of the fish). Anglers can still put their name down on the waiting list. Recommendations from a syndicate member or from someone in the trade helps. Not as dead man shoes as Shotgate use to be.
