Just thought I would let readers know there is a website we have created to let you know how this years Radio Tracking programme is going. It's a new website we have created which has the last 2 years reports posted . There is current activity highlighted using Google Earth maps, where 60 tagged fish have been named after local primary school children. You can follow the progress of the fish upriver weekly throughout the winter. You can access the website here. 2010 Salmon Tracking

This is really interesting. Thanks for posting Ken. It is amazing to think that many of these fish will be spawning close to where they are now. I always think they all head up "to the top".

Nice to see two are in my beloved Aboyne Water stretch!

Regards

The research is showing some interesting movements and reuslts from the annual data. One of the misconceptions was that all Springers run to the upper catchment but scale sampling analysis shows 25% of the springers do in fact spawn in the lower catchment. I hope you follow the progress of the fish throughout the winter.
