Marine Issues

Problems at sea in areas beyond inshore waters are of particular concern to salmon - visit the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organization web site for further information. Closer to home, sea lice remain a major factor limiting sea trout production. Predation by seals is regarded as a significant problem in some parts of the WRFT area; the impact to fish populations is hard to quantify.
