What fish are in the River Colne Upper (East Anglia)?

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.
12 sites · 103 events
21 positive taxa aggregates are shown. More survey coverage is not a fishing-quality verdict.
