We have had people putting fish into the reservoir with out the proper steps ( EI ,Movement papers from the environment agency) if we prove the cases against these persons we will have no other option but to take legal action ,and they if proved will be barred from the reservoir for life.wilst netting the other day we came across a pike of around 6 -7 lbs this fish has not been put in the res during an of are restocking programs,this proves that fish have been put into the reservoir by a person or persons unknown .This proves the justification of the netting , we health checked the fish when they were in the nets and all but one fish was returned to the water( that was the pike).we were also looking for certain fish as we were there ,we spotted a few of the fish on the web site but there were a few fish we couldn't see ( this could be down to them escaping the net) or the case of fish being taken as i said at the beginning of this article. if we find that fish are being taken by a person or persons unknown the same thing as the putting fish into the res ,if proven they will be barred from the club for life. (REMEMBER THAT IF FISH ARE PLACED INTO THE RES WITHOUT PERMISSION AND HEALTH CHECKS ,THEY CAN SPREAD DISIESE) safeguard your water tell some one on the committee ,or one of the bailiffs.
THANK YOU .
