This is UNACCEPTABLE

This barbed hook with its 2ft of line was removed this afternoon from the leg of a goose that was distressed and having difficulty walking on the main pond. There are some thoughtless morons that fish 🎣 our waters.

BARBED HOOKS OF ANY SIZE ARE PROHIBITED ON OUR WATERS – TO THOSE PERSONS THAT ARE LIKELY TO USE SUCH HOOKS – DON”T BE OFFENDED IF YOU ARE REQUESTED FOR A TACKLE INSPECTION.

Importance of checking keepnets prior to storage

On Saturday’s Junior match – when the match keepnet shed was entered – there was a ghastly stench.  On further inspection – it was found that one of the keepnets had been stored away with a sizeable fish still within it.
It had virtually fully decomposed and there were hundreds of live maggots around it.
It cannot be emphasised too much – the  importance of thoroughly checking all keepnets after use and prior to storage, to ensure no fish have been left inside them.
