  • In this video I give you a tour of the incredible Diglis Island Fish Pass and shed light on why it's so important for not only fish species like the Twaite Shad and Salmon but for the health of the UK's longest river, the river Severn!
    If you'd like to learn more about these projects and the great work being undertaken by the Unlocking The Severn project please visit www.unlockingthesevern.co.uk for more information.

    Wonderful remedial work! Some people might say "too late" . I think better late than never. We gotta give nature a chance whenever and wherever possible.

    Have a look at the one on the River Tummel in Scotland at Pitlochry. 310m long, and a rise equivalent to the dam wall.

    Really interesting. I Remember visiting Pitlochry salmon ladder when I was a kid. There's a underwater viewing window there too. The "salmon ladder" there allows the fish to bypass a dam so it's a fair height difference from the river up to the top. 👍🏼

    Ive caught plenty of shad over the years in the UK. Ive tried eating them before they went 'endangered' and we were banned from catching them. I dont know why anyone would want to eat them. They are just a giant herring, thats so much drier and appears to have more bones. I normal herring is ten times tastier, and I wouldnt ever bother cooking a shad again.

    Theres one just like that in Coimbra that has over a decade at least. And the dam has like 5 meters high. For 2 meteres we have a more basic and cheap system that works just as well.

    Water companies should never have been privatised. All the money that should have been invested in infrastructure and treatment instead was sent to shareholders. As recently announced we will have massive hikes in bills to cover the years of low investment.

    It should be illegal to build fish stairs past turbine dams or any other mechanical device that cuts up fish travelling down stream. I have a property shortly downstream an electrical power plant. It was never any good fishing in this stretch of river due to a plant also down stream. But after they build the stairs the stock of fish got depleted. In spring the fish travel up but they come down in pieces! They don't use the stairs going down. In my river now they have to pass 6 plants before reaching the sea! It's crazy! It was better when they got stuck one kilometer from the mouth of the river at the first plant. The stairs maybe don't have much impact on large species like Salmon that spawn only once. But all other fish that adults migrate downwards, its detrimental! Eel, Pike, Bream, Id, Perch, Grayling, White fish, Sturgeon, Carp, Burbot etc.

  • @samTollefson
    @samTollefson 5 місяців тому

    The water is robustly moving through the ladder for a long way. I wonder if that adds more oxygen to the water than normal river water, thereby giving the fish more oxygen and energy to help them make the trip upstream less stressful and better able to continue their journey successfully.

  • @justinschoon1359
    @justinschoon1359 6 місяців тому

    They are great when you don't have space for a natural bypass channel or baffling flows below the weir isn't viable. Putting more concrete into the river should definitely not be the answer to all fish passage problems, though.

    just a crying shame the river seven is in such a state, i fish the upper seven and there are just so much dead water up there, no weed just brown slime, no salmon parr, you may catch 3 in a week. 40 years ago parr were a pest fish in fast water . none of them masses of minnows anymore , all that work is to late,
