Fish Welfare

In order to preserve our Fish stock in good health the committee request members to follow these guidelines:

  • All anglers must carry either a disgorger or forceps 
  • An Environment Agency Approved Landing net must be used
  • Place keepnet as close to fishing position as possible and submerge as much as possible
  • Do not retain fish in keepnet for longer than 5 hours
  • Any Fish over 5 lbs must be returned to water immediately
  • Do not overcrowd keepnet
  • Do not tumble fish down a keepnet

The good health and quality of our fish is paramount to our Club, please adhere to the guidelines.
