A Comparison of Three Methods of Pike (Esox lucius L.) Removal from a Lowland Trout Fishery

N. M. Broughton, Kelly Fisher

Abstract

The seine netting, gill netting and angling techniques used at Grafham Water for the removal of pike are described and assessed, and the effectiveness of the various methods compared. It was found that a combination of summer gill netting and seine netting was most effective, but it was concluded that angling was worthwhile during the autumn months.
