Fishery News
Currently pictured on the news page of our website is a photograph of just a small amount of the litter that was collected on the26-8-07 from two pegs on Lake 2 at Goose Green, namely pegs 14 & 16, also found were crisp packets and two broken bank sticks that had just been left lying on the ground, these have now been disposed of, as mentioned before on the website and also in black & white in your club rule book, if you care to read it, Litter will not be tolerated, anyone and we do mean anyone, found littering or with litter in their peg will lose their membership with immediate effect .
There is no excuse to leave litter of any form lying around, you bought it with you, you take it home with you, the worst thing is the litter that was collected today by a serving committee member, included yards of line that had just been left where it fell, but to top it all off, the anglers, and yes we have a fair idea of who is responsible, had wrapped some of the line around the retaining hooks on the life belt, if you have time to wrap it around the life belt, you also have time to put it in your bag
We would like to extend our thanks to Steve and Verity Ludlow who have kindly donated a huge amount of aquatic plants to the Society, we will be using the reeds, rushes etc to plant out Deep Lake in the coming weeks, all help greatly appreciated from the membership for the mammoth task of planting.
