Éanna Hardwicke on The Sixth Commandment: ‘It’s a devastating story. I’m just glad that it reached people’

However, while the report found the total number of fish being caught and released was increasing, the overall number of fish being caught by all methods, including commercial fishing and angling, was 26,715 salmon and 2,082 sea trout. This is a reduction of 14 per cent on the total salmon catch recorded in 2021, but an increase of 30 per cent of the total sea trout catch recorded that year.

He said wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout “continue to face numerous risks”, including water pollution, illegal fishing and climate change, which has caused a 1 per cent rise in sea temperatures.
