River Churnet fishing evidence · West Midlands
What fish are in the River Churnet?
Monitoring has recorded 30 species across 29 surveyed sites on this water, between 1989 and 2025. 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.
The passport shows identity, survey breadth, evidence freshness and trip constraints without turning unlike facts into an opaque “best river” score.
29 sites · 128 events
30 positive taxa aggregates are shown. More survey coverage is not a fishing-quality verdict.
