The operation was deemed a success as they raised dissolved oxygen levels from a low initially of ~6% to 60%+. The water entering the stretch from the Manchester Ship Canal was showing ~30% due to EA operations further upstream.
Consequently, the stretch is now open to members to fish. We ask all members to be vigilant and report any signs of fish distress.
The EA No to ring is 0800 80 70 60 and this has also been posted on our new noticeboard by the river.
Please feel free to report any catch news back to the committee.
