正文(英文) | Press release New equipment set to help fish in distressFishing licence income has funded £10,000 worth of equipment to help protect fisheries in East Anglia and save fish in distress due to the effects of hot and dry weather. ![]() Environment Agency fisheries teams have bought a bank of equipment, including 10 new aerators and 8 handheld dissolved oxygen meters, which will be available on loan to angling clubs and fisheries across East Anglia to help if oxygen levels plummet as a result of warm weather. As it gets hotter during the summer months, temperature increase, which lowers dissolved oxygen levels and causes fish to become distressed and struggle for air. Water levels may decrease and algal blooms can also become more of a risk, both of which can impact oxygen levels. Kye Jerrom, Fisheries Specialist for the Environment Agency in East Anglia, said:
The monitoring kit measures water quality, which can help predict algae blooms or detect very low oxygen levels. Environment Agency teams can be drafted in to assist with aeration, which helps re-oxygenate the water. The equipment, which will be available to clubs or fisheries that have experienced issues in the past or are at high risk, was funded through the Fisheries Improvement Fund. Steve Lane, Fisheries Specialist for the Environment Agency in East Anglia, said:
Fishing licence income also funds two 24/7 dedicated fisheries duty officers who are on hand to assist fisheries with potential issues. If you spot dead or gasping fish report it to the incident hotline on 0800 807060. Fishing licence income is essential for services like this.
