 Fisheries management in south-east Lake Malawi, the Upper Shire River and Lake Malombe
Thus, all fisheries on the river are operating uneconomically, and their continuing operation probably depends largely on transfer of funds from other business activities on the part of the entrepreneurs, in the hope of a recovery in the future.
The majority of chambo seines on use in the river are short, large-meshed nets, which are rarely employed elsewhere, presumably because in other areas chambo are not caught in inshore water in such large numbers as was formerly the case in the river.
The Middle Shire river is closed to fishing from its origin in Lake Malombe until the southern boundary of Liwonde National Park, a few hundred meters north of Liwonde Barrage.

 Filmtracks: Last Stand at Sabre River (David Shire)
Shire's Western music is easily at its best when it's moving with an active rhythm, and it's the "journey" cues (often accented by the stereotypical acoustic guitar) that serve Last Stand at Sabre River best.
Shire increases the volume over the rhythms for action pieces such as "Wagon Chase," but sparse symphonic ambience is a constant reminder that we're listening to a television score.
Despite this criticism, Shire's score is indeed functional in what it needed to accomplish, and it could even be argued that the score is better than equivalent efforts by Lee Holdridge and other primarily television film composers of the era.

 Rhodes eResearch Repository - The biophysical dynamics of the Lower Shire River Floodplain fisheries in Malawi
Chimatiro, Sloans Kalumba (2005) The biophysical dynamics of the Lower Shire River Floodplain fisheries in Malawi.
Lower Shire Floodplain (34 ^0^ 45’ – 35 ^0^ E and 16 ^0^ 00’-17 ^0^ 15’ S) in Malawi, one of the major rivers-floodplains in the Zambezi Basin, was used to test this type of model.
Therefore, it was recommended that water obstruction on the Shire River must ensure sufficient water flow during the peak flood and spawning period to allow flooding and inundation of the floodplain in order to create habitat favourable for spawning and feeding as well as improve recruitment.

A decision was made to carry out emergency spraying of the Lilongwe River infestation and to introduce biological control agents immediately into the two new areas of infestation prior to the onset of floods durng the short rains in November and December.

A PRA of the socio-economic impact of the weed on riparian communities in the lower Shire confirmed it is a major concern, causing a range of problems, particularly to fishermen.

 Fisheries management in south-east Lake Malawi, the Upper Shire River and Lake Malombe
Figure 4.4 Fyke netting in the Upper Shire River between September 1990 and September 1991 indicated that the peak abundance of kasawala in the river occurred during the cold season, as the flooded areas along the river began to dry out.
Experimental gillnetting in the Upper Shire river indicated that, like in other shallow water areas, few chambo were to be found during the cold season.
Comparison of experimental seining at Mangochi in October 1991 and October 1973 indicated that the density of chambo in the river had dramatically declined (Figure 4.5), and migration patterns which formerly existed may have been disrupted by the collapse of the Lake Malombe and Upper Shire chambo fisheries.
