Escapes

Directorate of Fisheries
  • 02 Dec 2024
    1 salmon escapedCause: Usikkert, har ikke mottatt bilder fra hullet enda. Mulig årsak er at det har skjedd under senking av lodd etter levering var avsluttet. · recaptured 1 · Directorate of Fisheries
  • 30 Dec 2020
    4 salmon escapedCause: Det ble mistet 4 fisk fra merde 10 under lustelling. Det ble observert at slange fra oppvåkningskar ikke lå inne i merden ca kl 09.50. Årsak var at de ikke hadde lagt slangen fra oppvåkningskaret tilbake i merden, de oppdaget ikke feilen før det var for sent. Resterende fisk i lusetelling ble returnert til merden · recaptured 1 · Directorate of Fisheries
  • 27 Jun 2019
    19 other escapedCause: I dag 27/06.2019 klokken 21:55 ved lossing av smolt til lokalitet Store Lerresfjord oppsto det feil ved utpumpingen noe som førte til at smolt ble pumpet ut over dekk på Dønnland. Utpumpingen ble stanset relativt raskt, imidlertid ble det observerte en rømming av anslagvis 10 til 20 stykk smolt på gjennomsnitt 65 gram som falt ned fra dekk og i havet. Det ble øyeblikkelig satt ut gjenfangstgarn. · Directorate of Fisheries
