Quite simply, says Bjarne Granli.  He is a member and former leader of Arbeidernes Jeger og Fiskeforening Halden (AJFF).  Every June, he is ready with his fishing pole at the Berby river in Halden.  Four years ago, the fishermen were shocked when sick and half-dead fish appeared in the popular salmon river.  The salmon suffered from skin bleeding, reduced consciousness and the fish was easily caught.  Researchers determined that the fish had suffered from the mysterious skin disease Red skin disease.  No one managed to find out why the fish got sick.  After two years without signs of infection, the disease is now back.  Bjarne Granli wakes up at night because of the sick salmon.

Unknown cause It is not known what causes the skin disease.  &#8211; What is worrying is that we know very little about Red skin disease, says head of department Sigurd Hytter\u00f8d in Norske salmon rivers.  &#8211; It is a condition that causes the fish to undergo changes that you see in the fish.  There is no reason why it should be like this.  That&#8217;s what makes this complicated.  This salmon from Enningsdalselva was found in 2019 with obvious wounds.  Photo: AJFF The fishermen believe that more effort is needed to prevent the disease from spreading to other rivers.  &#8211; The big challenge now is that there is no money to do the research needed to find the cause, says Hytter\u00f8d.  Tests are being taken Two years ago, no one was able to find out what the disease was.  Now samples are being taken of the salmon again in the hope of solving the mystery.  Two researchers from the Veterinary Institute carried out a field autopsy of two salmon on 31 May this year.  More investigations will now be carried out on the material, including the cultivation of bacteria and viruses.  Some of the investigations take a long time, but the results will eventually be recorded and sent to river owners&#8217; associations and the Norwegian Food Safety Authority.  The river owner association has also been sent equipment for further sampling.  Measures from the Veterinary Institute It is not allowed to move fish between watercourses.  Disinfect and dry fishing equipment, waders, nets and other equipment before moving between waterways.  Do not wash and gut fish in places other than where you caught him.  Sick or caught fish must not be released back into the watercourse.
