River Season.

Beware!!

Some swims have been cleared in readiness for the start of the river season next Tuesday 16th, with the recent period of wet weather the banks are very slippery, please take care when accessing the swims.

Good luck if you are fishing next week.

Roswell Pit.

Today I received numerous photographs from around the Loop Line section of the pit, the out of bounds area and the private land between the pit and the railway line. The photographs show where some low life/low lifes have been using the area as a toilet. If you can not take care/dispose of your own waste you are not welcome on our waters. If we find the culprit/culprits they will receive a life time ban and their names will be shared with other local clubs.

We will be installing wildlife cameras around the pit as sadly this has also happened in other areas. This is an added cost which the angling section will have to fund, so expect your membership fees to increase next year to cover the unnecessary additional costs !!

If this disgusting habit continues, we will look into either night anglers having to book on 48hrs prior to fishing or we will just ban night fishing altogether!!

If anyone has any information about the culprits please contact me.

This is just one area!

All members please report if you see this vehicle. The so-called angler has been issued a lifetime ban by another local club. It's not someone we want on our waters.

Thank you.

Slipway.

The gate to the slipway was found left opened this morning with the lock left opened with the combination numbers. It could have been someone from the sailing club. If it turns out that an angler has left it open and it happens again we will have no choice but to ask the sailing club to change the combination on the lock and we will limit fishing from the slip way for just members who have mobility issues.

Parking

Can the angler who has parked taking up two parking space please return and move your vehicle back or forward. It's a busy time of the year for the pit so all parking spaces are required. A disabled angler has turned up today to fish the slip way, however the Volvo has reduced the amount of parking available. Please be more considerate!

Reminder.

Please read the rules again.

NO Carp are to be retained in sacks or slings. Please weight, photograth and return the fish immediately.

Fishing from the slipway on Roswell is not permitted on the sailing club race days.
