Fish Counter Results - June 2008
by
R Campbell
on Thu 03 Jul 2008 17:25 BST
Fish Counter results for June 2008: Still no fish on the Gala, but some on the Ettrick, though nothing major despite the spates. See the attachment for the figures.
This year at the Kelso Show (25th - 26th July) we will have the "spare" fish counter on display in our tent, to show how it works, so come along if you would like to find out more about VAKI fish counters.

Fish Counters - November 2007
by
R Campbell
on Tue 18 Dec 2007 09:51 GMT
November 2007
Ettrick Counter : The November total was below average, though numbers in this month are very variable, ranging from 400 to 3000. The year total will also be below average though the loss of June and July counts means that an exact total is not available. Under normal conditons, 2-400 fish could have been expected in those months, but they were wet this year which might mean more ran than usual.
Gala Counter : The first full year looks as if it will come to about 1600 fish, of which many will be Brown-trout. Seeing this run of Brown-trout coming out of the main channel and in to a tributary to spawn re-inforces the idea that they are migratory too, though within the river rather than going to sea.

Fish Counter Results - October 2007
by
R Campbell
on Wed 21 Nov 2007 13:39 GMT
Ettrick Fish Counter : The good count for October did not make up for the poor September count (which was half of its average). The low flows that were a problem in September continued through most of October - and in to November as well. The very high numbers being shown as "up" for October on the screen in the Viewing Centre at Philiphaugh were produced by the fact that "Rejected" events are being stored for manual examination due to some software glitches but it was not realised at the time that this meant that they were being added to the "Up" totals on display. A note about this has now been added to the display.
Gala Fish Counter : While an apparently good number of fish were counted over October they were mostly small, at less than 35cms or so and can therefore be regarded as Brown-trout. The Gala was very low over the month and larger fish would have had a struggle even to reach the cauld.
