IMPORTANT NEWS – OTTER PREDATION AT WILLINGTON LAKE. 12th March 2009
Press release
Photos not nice viewing
A full update on the otter predation problem at Willington Lake was
given at the SDAA AGM on 25th March 2009. No further carp
deaths have occurred since the press release (12 March 2009) and the
option to construct an otter proof fence is currently being discussed
with the land owner, EA and IDB. The findings of the recently published
Otter Survey for Bedfordshire 2008/09 was discussed, which highlights
the extent of otter activity throughout the Great Ouse, River Ivel and
Elstow Brook catchment areas in close proximity to many established
stillwaters. We are aware of other fisheries in that have suffered
significant carp losses to otters this winter.
