We are asking coarse anglers on the Tyne for their help in monitoring 1000 dace we have stocked a short distance downstream of Hexham - each fish has been marked with a blue dye spot on their underside - see below, and thanks in advance:.
The North East Fisheries team have started a River Tyne dace study by releasing 1000 dace marked with blue dye. We are kindly requesting that anglers who catch any dace on the Tyne, carefully check each fish for a blue mark and that any marked dace are reported to us.

We carried out an emergency fish rescue on the Hartley Burn on Tuesday following a report of large numbers of fish trapped in isolated pools. We used electric fishing to rescue more than 500 young salmon & sea trout and safely relocated them further downstream.

Our officers are on their way to this #INNSweek event now. Working with partners and talking to the public about invasive species and the need for good #biosecurity.
It’s vital to practice good biosecurity. Some INNS are invisible so it’s important to thoroughly clean and dry your footwear and equipment when you enter and leave a watercourse. Join us later this afternoon at Derwenthaugh Park to learn how you can help! @InvasiveSp #INNSWeek
