Every Fish Has a History

The Folly’s Chip‑Monitoring Programme

At The Folly, every carp and catfish carries a story — and now, thanks to our fish‑chip monitoring system, we can finally read it.

We’ve microchipped every carp and catfish across both lakes, allowing us to track growth, condition, and long‑term welfare with absolute accuracy. When a fish is landed, it’s scanned via Bluetooth straight to your phone, instantly pulling up its full history — weight gains, previous captures, seasonal behaviour, and more.

This isn’t just data. It’s how we protect the future of the lakes.

• Health monitoring — early detection of issues
• Biomass management — balanced, sustainable stock levels
• Growth tracking — informed feeding and habitat decisions
• Fish welfare — every fish logged, cared for, and understood

Every scan adds a new chapter to the story of The Folly.
Every angler becomes part of the record.
Every fish gets the protection it deserves.

This is responsible fishery management.
This is The Folly.
