Swavesey Drain fishing evidence · East Anglia

What fish are in the Swavesey Drain?

Monitoring has recorded 19 species across 3 surveyed sites on this water, between 2005 and 2026. 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.
