Hi All
Following really positive feedback regarding a carp rig workshop, I can confirm this will be held at Hunstrete Lakes on Saturday 12th August, between 10am and 1pm.
We’ll hold it by the junior coaching shed, next to Withy lake.
We are not experts by any stretch of the imagination, just a few volunteers to show you what we know, mainly looking at what can be considered safe rigs and how to tie and use simple carp rigs and leaders. This session is aimed at novice and junior anglers.
It would be helpful if people could comment to say you hope to attend as we are looking to light a bbq for a few simple burgers.
Unfortunately it’s only a small bbq, we are going to struggle to offer vegetarian or vegan alternatives, sorry.
We will be looking at holding a separate session for piking later this year if this proves successful
Thanks
Tim

The Lydes Farm venue is being discontinued as a BAA fishery from 21st June 2023.
The fishery is not well attended by BAA members and is an annual cost to BAA of about £5,000 which includes fishing rights and feed and any other sundry costs.
It is hoped that another venue may be considered when available and any information from members of likely stillwater venues that may be or may become available can be passed on to any committee member for consideration.
