Rod fishery statistics: salmon 2011 to 2025, sea trout 2017 to 2025 - reported catch and effort by Stock Assessment Area

Reported rod catches of salmon, from the 2011 to 2025 seasons, and sea trout, from the 2017 to 2025 seasons, are provided by Stock Assessment Area and month. Statistical Salmon Fishery District and regional catch data are available within the time series: “Salmon and Sea Trout fishery statistics: 1952 - 2025 - reported catch and effort by district and method” {https://dx.doi.org/10.7489/12564-1}.

The 2011 to 2016 season salmon rod catch data by Stock Assessment Area, was collected at Statistical Salmon Fishery District level and split into stock assessment areas retrospectively by the data providers, where possible. Sea trout data from 2011 to 2016 was not split into stock assessment areas and are therefore, not included. The 2017 to 2025 season salmon and sea trout rod catch data are the summations of reports from individual fisheries. Stock Assessment Area data is not comparable with Statistical Salmon Fishery District data. This is because:
{insert bullet} not all fisheries in a District are in a Stock Assessed Area
{insert bullet} only assessed Stock Assessment Areas are included. (Some Stock Assessment Areas have insufficient data to allow an assessment to be completed.)
{insert bullet} any reports of salmon caught and released out of season are not used in assessing stocks, and are not included in this dataset.
{insert bullet} where fish counter data is used in the stock assessment, the assessment uses catch from upstream of the counter only. Any reports of catch from downstream of fish counters in those areas are not used in assessing stocks, and are not included in this dataset.

Retained salmon, retained sea trout, and caught and released sea trout are included in the dataset though not used in the stock assessment. However, this does not include catch from below fish counters used in assessing stocks.

Salmon rod effort, and percentage of salmon catch covered by rod effort, from the 2023 to 2025 seasons are included.

No attempt has been made to correct for non-returns or incomplete information held in the register of fishery contacts.

Stock 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 the data will be used in the conservation assessment of rivers for the 2027 season. Assessment Areas are individual rivers draining to the coast, 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 Stock Assessment Areas with their corresponding Salmon Fishery District and Salmon Fishery Region is available to download below.

Marine Scotland has published a summary of the "2025 Official Statistics for the time series (1952 to 2025) for salmon and sea trout”{https://www.gov.scot/isbn/9781807750060}. Time series data, by District, are available from "Marine Scotland Data"{https://dx.doi.org/10.7489/12564-1} and summary data are available from our data visualisation application, accessible from the related content section below.

本数据集提供了2011至2025年渔业季的鲑鱼钓具渔获量，以及2017至2025年渔业季的海鳟渔获量，统计维度为种群评估区域（Stock Assessment Area）与月份。本时间序列中包含鲑鱼渔业统计区（Statistical Salmon Fishery District）层面的统计数据及区域渔获量信息，相关数据集为《鲑鱼与海鳟渔业统计：1952-2025——按区域与作业方式划分的报告渔获量与作业量》{https://dx.doi.org/10.7489/12564-1}。

2011至2016年渔业季按种群评估区域划分的鲑鱼钓具渔获数据，最初以鲑鱼渔业统计区为单位收集，随后由数据提供方尽可能回溯拆分至种群评估区域。2011至2016年的海鳟数据未拆分至种群评估区域，因此未纳入本数据集。2017至2025年渔业季的鲑鱼与海鳟钓具渔获数据为各个体渔业报告的汇总值。种群评估区域数据与鲑鱼渔业统计区数据不具备可比性，原因如下：
- 某一统计区内并非所有渔业活动均位于种群评估区域内
- 仅纳入已完成评估的种群评估区域（部分种群评估区域因数据不足无法完成评估）
- 非作业季捕获并放生的鲑鱼记录，不会用于种群评估，亦未纳入本数据集
- 若种群评估中使用了鱼群计数器数据，则评估仅统计计数器上游的渔获量。此类区域内计数器下游的渔获报告，不会用于种群评估，亦未纳入本数据集。

本数据集包含留存鲑鱼、留存海鳟以及捕获并放生的海鳟数据，尽管这些数据未用于种群评估，但不包含纳入种群评估的鱼群计数器下游区域的渔获量。

本数据集纳入了2023至2025年渔业季的鲑鱼钓具作业量，以及鲑鱼渔获量被钓具作业覆盖的占比。

未对渔业联系人登记册中的未回传信息或不完整记录进行修正。

本时间序列所纳入的种群评估区域，为依据《2016年鲑鱼保护（苏格兰）条例》开展鲑鱼种群保护状况评估的区域，相关数据将用于2027年渔业季的河流保护评估。种群评估区域为单独入海的独立河流，但若无法将渔业渔获量分配至单个河流，则将这些河流合并为地理上连贯的河流群组。
