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.
