I would like to present the Chew Mink Project again to you and your brilliant club members. We will be deploying more rafts across the River Chew to monitor mink and other wildlife in an attempt to improve the river for fishing. We cannot do this without volunteers to monitor the rafts so I am asking if anybody is interested in a low-commitment opportunity to improve the fishing in their local waters?
Monitoring will involve checking the rafts once every couple of weeks (or less) and reporting your findings to me. I will meet you on-site when suits to give you a brief overview of the rafts, clay and mink identification then help you set up the rafts and deploy them.
This is a great opportunity to get back out onto the river and contribute to improving the fishing in your favourite stretch!
I would appreciate it if you could share the message with your members and look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,

Notice to be BAA members – Fish Spawning
Will members please note that all BAA fisheries will remain
closed until the 1st June 2020 to allow for the fish to complete
spawning.
Whilst it is fully appreciated that everyone wants to get back to
fishing, the safety of the very valuable stock in the fisheries
must take precedence.
Hunstrete still remains off limits until reopened.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated in this matter.
