This fish should have bee...You do not get my point. This fish should have been released if possible to bolster the spawning stock. When the season was extended to 12 October it was anticipated that the vast majority of trout would be released and that the extension was related to prolonging the angling business for the town without causing harm to the stocks which were quite robust at the time. We now have a situation whereby trout are being killed which are quite obviously near to spawning and with everyone bar none concerned with the future of the fishery , people are outraged at such fish being killed. It really does not matter whether the trout is a Brown trout or sea trout except in regard to tagging but both are equally important to the catchment. Unfortunately the individual who caught the fish may have tried to release the fish but failed but the report sought to herald the catch as something which should be seen as a great catch but should have mentioned the effort to revive the fish. Now in regard to tagging of the fish, are we now going to give individuals the capacity to decide that their large trout are in fact brown trout and not sea trout and don't require a tag. A bye law to protect all trout in the system is required for next year. Do not forget that the real problem here is what is happening nearby on both salmon farms and this needs to be the focus of attention but the drastically reduced trout stock needs protection with mandatory catch and release until other issues are resolved. It is quite probable that the stock is now severely compromised at population level and no exploitation should take place until stocks recover.Salmon Watch Irelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13319851153040477337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6148564177177101593.post-66792452702765382432017-10-08T11:34:07.536+01:002017-10-08T11:34:07.536+01:00http://www.atlanticsalmontrust.org/sea-trout-resea...http://www.atlanticsalmontrust.org/sea-trout-research-programme/<br /><br />This 'Brown' trout likely to contribute to sea trout progeny as per AST research.
