Electric fishing to count fish in

Currently, the community of communes of Pays Houdanais is carrying out an inventory over its entire territory. To do this, agents practice scientific fishing with electricity, which temporarily stuns the fish. Aquatic animals are identified, measured, weighed, and finally released into waterways. “The objectives of these fisheries are to accurately identify fish species,” explains the administration. Subsequently, its management of streams and rivers can be adjusted.
