Killing Salmon.

With angling interests on the river Usk taking an interest in driving further nails into the coffin of the wreckage of traditional salmon fishing on the Severn estuary

Here's a question ...............Which fishery is now the biggest KILLER of river usk SPAWNING SALMON STOCK ?????

Well the answer is now very simple . The river Usk angling effort.

A nice hot summer now and those "Returned fish " will be going belly up in droves .

Perhaps the NRW / EA should seriously consider stopping this fishery for 10 years to help stock recover ??

Picture . One of 21 salmon caught in 3 days by one angler just before spawning time.
