正文(英文) | Press release Tis the season for filling Christmas stockingsEnvironment Agency’s Fish Farm team has been out spreading good cheer during the festive season with their Christmas restocking program. ![]() They may not be Santa’s ‘elvers’ but the Calverton team has been hard at work delivering fish to rivers, ponds and lakes the length and breadth of England including waters around Durham in the north, Isle of Wight in the south, Herefordshire in the west, Suffolk in the east and the River Parchey at King’s Sedgemoor Drain in Somerset. In the first 4 weeks of the stocking season (14 November to 14 December) 143,000 fish reared for up to 18 months have been driven from the Fish Farm in Nottinghamshire and released into 41 still waters and 30 rivers with plenty more planned for the coming weeks. The main reasons for stocking Calverton-bred fish and larvae are: replacing stocks lost to pollution or following habitat or water quality improvements; improving stocks where natural reproduction is low; and helping to create fisheries in areas where there is a shortage of angling opportunities. The species raised at Calverton include Barbel, Bream, Chub, Roach, Dace, Rudd, Tench, Crucian carp, and Grayling. Fish are reared for up to 18 months. These fish play an important role in the work of the Environment Agency and its partners to restore, improve and develop sustainable fisheries in England.
