Nith Salmon Smolt Tracking Project Results 2021
In 2021, the Nith Catchment Fishery Trust ran a project called the Nith Salmon Smolt Tracking Project. The project entailed trapping 50 salmon smolts from the Upper Nith, in the Crawick and Mennock Waters, and fitting them with acoustic tags. Eight acoustic receivers were positioned down the length of the River Nith which meant that the salmon smolts could be tracked as they migrated down the River Nith and out into the Solway.
