A perfect read for fishery and river managers, fisherman and nature enthusiasts; the book describes how changing seasons and river conditions impact the natural surroundings of a coarse fish. Everard details how the species depend upon the diversity of habitats in river systems and considers how the level of dependence fluctuates throughout different life stages. From spawning and eggs, through to the juvenile and adult phases, the book provides an in-depth view for all people who enjoy the natural beauty of thriving rivers.
The author also emphasises an importance on understanding changing river habitats in order to recognise many “bottlenecks” to the population, as well as the varieties of coarse fish species that have resulted from historic changes. The book describes a process that is aimed to benefit the wider community of wildlife with which coarse fish are interdependent, as it is important to manage rivers positively to protect and improve the vitality of fisheries.
