No attempt has been made to correct for non-returns or incomplete information held in the register of proprietors and occupiers. Reported rod catches of salmon from the 2017 to 2021 seasons are provided by Assessment Area and month. Salmon Fishery District and regional catch data are available within the time series: “Salmon and Sea Trout fishery statistics: 1952 - 2021 - reported catch and effort by method”{https://dx.doi.org/10.7489/12414-1}. Assessment Areas included in this time series are those where the conservation status of salmon stocks are assessed for the Conservation of Salmon (Scotland) Regulations 2016 and will be used in the conservation assessment for the 2023 season river gradings. Assessment Areas are individual rivers, except for those areas where fishery catch cannot be assigned to individual rivers. In such cases, rivers are combined to form geographically-coherent groups of rivers. A list of Assessment Areas with their corresponding Salmon Fishery District and Salmon Fishery Region is available to download below. Topic sheets have been published summarising the 2021 Official Statistics for the time series (1952-2021) for both “salmon”{https://www.gov.scot/isbn/9781804354049} and “sea trout”{https://www.gov.scot/isbn/9781804354056}. Time series data are available from “Marine Scotland Data”{https://dx.doi.org/10.7489/12414-1} and summary data are available from our data visualisation application, accessible from the related content section below.
