The basket fisheries of the severn estuary


An ancient fishing basket . The putt or kype.

Its hard to believe that basket fisheries still fished on our welsh region of the severn estuary in living memory . The last was closed in 1995 at goldcliff . These fisheries has existed for many hundreds of years and our rivers could sustain them . It is our belief that problems with salmon stock are on the rivers ,closure of all but our fishery has not made any proportional difference
