Dinoflagellate combined with solids in water after heavy rainfall resulted in environmental insult. Mortality is now back at normal levels and appetite are doing well.
Fish had been doing really well but have succumbed to an enviromental insult casued by a multitude of factors in the loch.
Enviromental event lasted only a few days and mortality levels are back to normal. Harvesting procedures have commenced and fallow is expected within the month. Enviromental insult combined with historic PGD is thought to have been the main source of high mortality. [Original PDF]
