Fish Removal Services

There are many reasons why fish may need to be removed from a waterbody. Overstocking, invasive species, poor growth rates, unbalanced fish populations or planned restoration works can all affect the health and performance of a fishery.

Our experienced team uses a range of techniques, including seine netting and electrofishing, to safely capture and remove fish with minimal stress. Every project is carefully planned to ensure the most effective method is used for the size, type and condition of the waterbody.

Whether removing a small number of fish or carrying out a large-scale stock reduction programme, we work efficiently to achieve the best outcome for both the fishery and the surrounding environment.
