Ash Brook fishing evidence · Greater Manchester Merseyside and Cheshire

What fish are in the Ash Brook?

Monitoring has recorded 12 species across 7 surveyed sites on this water, between 1999 and 2023. These are survey records with dates. They do not establish what is present today, that the water is fishable, or that you have permission to fish it.

River evidence passport

Four signals, kept deliberately separate.
