The report also looks at migratory fish movements at Waddow Weir, Winckley Hall and Locks Weir, stocking numbers of brown trout, rainbow trout and coarse fish in various rivers, pollution incidents and fish mortalities.The Fisheries Advisory Committee was part of the Regional Water Authorities, in this case the North West Water Authority. This preceded the Environment Agency which came into existence in 1996.
