River Tame fishing evidence · Greater Manchester Merseyside and Cheshire

What fish are in the River Tame?

Monitoring has recorded 27 species across 41 surveyed sites on this water, between 1992 and 2024. 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.
