Membership Cards.

Members must be in procession of their membership cards at all times. Copies on your phone is not proof of membership!! We would also like members to have additional form of id so we can check.

To the angler that was fishing on the reserved Winter League A section, if your eye sight is that bad that you could not read the signs I suggest you take up another sport! Unfortunately the member who asked you to leave did not take your name and membership number so we could deal with you.

Predator fishing.

As the temperatures are reducing we have decided to allow dead and live baiting on the river and pit from today.

A reminder that anglers must be within 3mtrs of their rods at all times. Any members not following this EA and club rule will be asked to leave the water immediately and not return.

It is not in the rules yet, however the committee would prefer members to use semi barbless hooks while dead/live baiting and lure anglers to use barbless hooks at all times.

Reminder, no fluorocarbon traces while predator fishing with lures and baits.

Parking is NOT permitted on any banks of the River Ouse!!

We have had a few occasions recently where members cars are being parked on top of the banks near the Lark outfall and the bridges, please do not park there!!!

We know parking is very limited however there is nothing we can do about increasing access/parking.

Predator fishing Reminder

Dead baiting and live baiting on Beet waters is not permitted until November.

A member found two anglers dead baiting on Roswell today, the member witnessed one of the anglers landing a Zander, it took twenty minutes for the angler to revive the Zander which is totally unacceptable.

If any member sees another member predator fishing please have a word with the angler and send me a message asap.

Many thanks.

Keepnets.

With the forecast of high temperatures the use of keepnets are not permitted on Roswell pit.

If you plan to use a keepnet on the River Ouse your keepnet must be a minimum length of 4mtrs. Please do not use a keepnet on Foremill Wash if you fish the pegs that have shallow water in close.

Many thanks.
