🐟 IMPORTANT FISHERY RULES & FISH WELFARE REMINDER 🐟
Following a recent incident involving individuals attempting to remove fish from the fishery, we’d like to remind all anglers that fish welfare is our number one priority. Hopefully it’s obvious but it’s CATCH & RELEASE ONLY!
Our rules are in place to protect our stock, our facilities, and the future of the fishery:
🎣 Lake One is for experienced carp anglers only who are confident handling fish up to 30lb.
🎣 All anglers on Lake One must have:
• A large, well-padded unhooking mat
• A heavy-duty weigh sling
• A suitable landing net
🎣 Maximum 3 rods per angler
🎣 Barbless hooks only
🎣 Minimum 10lb line and size 8 barbless hooks on Lake One
🎣 No fixed leads or unsafe rigs. Leads must be able to eject safely if a fish becomes snagged.
🎣 Suitable fish care products such as Klin-ik are encouraged and appreciated.
🎣 No keepnets on Lake One. Elsewhere, no more than 25lb of fish may be retained in keepnets and for no longer than 4 hours.
🚗 Vehicles must be parked in designated car parks or allocated parking areas. Vehicles must not be driven onto pegs.
🐕 One dog per angler. Dogs must be kept on a lead and under control at all times.
👥 One partner/non-angling guest per paying angler.
🗑️ Please take all litter home with you.
🔥 No barbecues. Small gas cookers are permitted.
⚠️ All fish remain the property of the fishery. Any attempt to remove fish or breach fish welfare rules will be treated extremely seriously.
⚠️ We reserve the right to refuse entry or evict anglers and guests at any time without prior notice.
Thank you to the overwhelming majority of anglers who respect the fish, the fishery, and fellow anglers. And as always, if you see anything contrary to the above please contact us immediately.
On a more positive note, take a look at some of the fantastic fish that have been landed recently in the attached photos. The quality of the stock is exactly why we place such importance on fish care and protecting the future of the fishery.
Respect the fish. Respect the fishery. Protect the future.
