THE PLT STATED THAT HE CIRCLED & LOOKED FOR WIRES & OBSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO SPRAYING. DURING A RUN HE FLEW OVER A FIRST SET OF WIRES BUT STRUCK A SECOND SET OF WIRES WHICH WERE NOT MARKED & THE POLES WERE DIFFICULT TO SEE BECAUSE THEY WERE IN TREES. FROM THE DIRECTION THE ACFT WAS FLYING, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT FOR THE PLT TO SEE THE WIRES THE ACFT STRUCK.
