Electric fishing in the River Allen

Fish surveys is one of BUG's key specialisms, and electric fishing is one of our main go-to methods for sampling streams and smaller rivers. We have a comprehensive suite of electric fishing gear, including four Smith-Root LR-24 backpacks, twin-anode Electrafish bankside unit and twin-anode Electrafish boat kit.

Feel free to get in touch if you require fish surveys in any habitats and we will be happy to discuss the best options for you.
