Events
The River Annan FT has been using anglers to monitor fish stocks on the River for a number of years. This has helped the Fisheries Trust to better understand the river's stock structure. This Spring and early Summer, the focus of the excercise is on the brown trout fishery, in particular what size ranges of fish are in different parts of the river. For more information and how to get involved, you can view the flyer by clicking here.
The event will be held over a number of days: 13th April, 11th May, 9th Jun, 14th July and 11th August.
