Agree re. fines. Though hopefully the floodplain connectivity & roughness here is promoting out of bank deposition / acting as a sediment store. Last one, I promise.
DISGUSTING scenes in the #RiverWye at Monmouth this morning, where Wyesham Wastewater is dumping sh💩t straight into the river. 🤬😡 No words needed from us, Wild on the Wye Angela Jones sums it up perfectly... #SewageScandal #SaveTheWye
Final touches. On Gill Beck installing flexi-baffles to #SlowTheFlow & hold depth to help drown out remaining step. #fishpassage The Wild Trout Trust #Aire RT #GreatYorkshireRivers #culvertcapers
SHOCKING: Over 850,000 farmed salmon have died since 1 October 2024 at RSPCA Assured Bakkafrost's Applecross death trap due to Fungus, Bacterial Disease and water quality Scot Gov Marine Salmon Scotland Read and weep at the mortality data via gov.scot/publications/f…
Into the headwaters of Oak Beck on a cracking spring day for The Wild Trout Trust @YorkDalesRT and finally some better quality habitat. Not without issues, even up here, but great opportunities for improvement #NiddActionGroup #fishpassage
Top end of another #Ure headwater looking to replicate The Wild Trout Trust project w/ #WoodlandTrust on #Snaizeholme wildtrout.org/wttblog/snaize… Huge opps to #SlowTheFlow by tipping whole trees into the beck, creating habitat & diversifying the channel #Wensleydale @YorkDalesRT #NFM
Great to see this very topical project on river health & nature from #Lothersdalian Beccy@Falling Stars Theatre on tour. Would your local #primaryschool benefit?
A rare & very enjoyable site visit with Jonathan Grey . Sometimes tricky sites need two brains and I could not have thought of anyone better! He’s not Contemplating the meaning of life, although figuring out #fish passage solutions is just as deep. Ribble Rivers Trust The Wild Trout Trust
We're supporting The Wild Trout Trust in their annual fundraising #charityauction - 1day for 2rods on any of our game waters across #Yorkshire auction.wildtrout.org/listing/396-on…
The River Project, theatre performance. We encourage young people to take responsibility/ownership of protecting the natural world, raising awareness/ respect for the river. BBC Countryfile BBC Springwatch RiverActionUK River Action BBC Breakfast Friends of the Earth (Action) Greenpeace UK
Great bit of work by the #FlyFishing committee members and a few #volunteers to install some new stiles on our Funkirk #Aire beat. Funding made possible via The Wild Trout Trust & Environment Agency - Yorkshire & North East #fishery improvement prog. #FIP
Although the #Love4LothersdaleBeck project led by The Wild Trout Trust is over, the legacy continues. We have more dipper breeding thanks to nestboxes & better Riverfly Partnership because of habitat improvements. Sand martins are once more prospecting the 'hotel'. Chicks ringed under licence
Further afield in #Cumbria for The Wild Trout Trust project proposals to feed into Penrith to Kendal Arc #LandscapeRecovery Project. Denuded & depauperate, it will need to be transformational! So many channels realigned, straightened & perched, disconnecting floodplains
Little wonder the River Sprint is sprinty! Historic & maintained channel realignment & straightening serves only to keep it conveying water at its sprintiest pace d/s to Kendal.... The Wild Trout Trust exploring opps to unshackle & re-engage the floodplain #SlowTheFlow #restoration
