We cannot stress enough the importance of making quick and accurate returns of salmon catches, even if nothing has been caught. Recording catch data is one (perhaps the best, certainly the most cost effective) way of determining the success of our river restoration works. Although affected by short term variations in weather and water conditions, the longer term data set will build an accurate picture of our salmon runs. Catch returns can be made quickly via our online form for both Passport and non-Passport waters. Most of our reporting is from the Wye. Where a salmon has come from another river we will state accordingly.

Please note that when temperatures are high, we advise
No Salmon fishing when the water temperature is above 20.0°C
No Trout or Pike fishing when the water temperature is above 20.0°C
No Coarse fishing when the water temperature above 25.0°C
As the temperature rises the amount of oxygen water can hold decreases. This affects the ability of fish to recover from being caught. Above the temperatures listed above mortality rates post capture increase exponentially. This is why at these temperatures it is always worth taking a thermometer with you when fishing
