Southern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee 8th April, 1981

This is the report from the Southern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee meeting, which was held on the 8th April, 1981. It includes the report by the area fisheries officer on fisheries activities between December 1980 to February, 1981. This comments on river conditions and fishing, and an update on Hollingworth and the pilot hatchery, salmon cages in Dalton-in-Furness, and Langcliffe hatchery. Finally the report adds about stockings of coarse fish and non migratory trout added by the Angling Associations, fish mortalities and fish disease. The Fisheries Advisory Committee was part of the Regional Water Authorities, in this case the North West Water Authority. This preceded the Environment Agency which came into existence in 1996.
