UPPER LODE, COUNTING SHAD A migratory fish THE SHAD is now highly endangered. Working with UNLOCKING THE SEVERN and the RIVERS AND CANAL TRUST I want to raise awareness of their plight. Weirs, dams and intakes all impede their passage to the spawning grounds high up on the River Severn . Upper Lode Weir is near Tweksbury. It is a weir, over which the fish cannot pass, but it has been broken down at one end and a pale-yellow board put in place. The water flow is slower here and the fish sense it, they pass over it clearly visible to the local community who sign up to to count them on their migration upstream in April and early May.
