The Tweed Foundation will shortly be undertaking its summer electro-fishing programme on sites within the Tweed catchment. Survey work is undertaken on a rotational basis on all Tweed tributaries to build up a complete data set which allows comparisons to be made on fish stocks between burns; this work is of particular importance in monitoring Tweed's juvenile stocks in our headwaters.

The Foundation is always keen to show any interested individuals how the work is undertaken and the numbers and diversity of species which can be found in what, sometimes, appears to be (on first sight) an 'empty' burn.

If you would like to accompany the Foundation's biologists on an electro-fishing survey, please contact the Foundation to find a convenient date and area.
