What's hot and what's not in West Sutherland
Set in the North West of Scotland, the area covered by the West Sutherland Fisheries Trust is comprised predominantly of rock and water - giving a pristine environment and outstanding wild salmonid fishing.
The genetic analysis of the trout population within the area has now been completed and the report is available. Interesting results suggesting a complex population and no difference between brown trout and sea trout. Download a copy here.
The report on the protocol for monitoring elver recruitment is now available here.
A genetic study to look at the effects of a large fish farm escape in Loch Eriboll will take place in 2011.
Little Assynt Lochs Project, undertaken by Culag Woodland Trust in conjunction with WSFT is now complete. Download a copy here (Appendix 1, Appendix 2)
Mink confirmed in the north in higher numbers than we would like. Bad news for Sutherland wildlife.
