NOTIFICATION TO BAA MEMBERS FISHING AT HUNSTRETE.  Dated 23/4/2018

 

NOTIFICATION TO BAA MEMBERS FISHING AT HUNSTRETE.

 

Due to abuse of the current arrangement of allowing members to purchase

multiple undated day tickets, the BAA committee has decided that day tickets will

be deposited in a collection box on entry to the complex prior to proceeding to a peg.

 This new arrangement will come into effect within the next week or so and

relevant signs will direct members regarding this arrangement when in effect.

 Anyone found fishing without having deposited a ticket into the box will be

deemed to not have a valid ticket and may face disciplinary action likely to

result in a ban.

If further problems are encountered then the previous arrangement of only being able to purchase specifically dated day ticket will be reintroduced.

 

 

Dated 23/4/2018
Committee Announcements

Up to three tickets may be purchased per visit.

At the Bathampton A.A committee meeting held in January day ticket sales were discussed and as a result the following changes to issuing day tickets are required.

 From the 1st of February 2018 day tickets for The Dave Crookes Fishery at Hunstrete will not be dated with a specific day, only the required month and year.

 Example (FEBRUARY 2018, MARCH 2018).

Up to three tickets may be purchased per visit.

Tickets must be used within the stated month.

Again, please note that this change only applies to The Dave Crookes Fishery at Hunstrete.

Committee Announcements

INFORMATION NOTICE FOR BAA MEMBERS. RIG CHECKS

INFORMATION NOTICE FOR BAA MEMBERS.

Members are reminded that barbed and micro-barbed hooks

are not permitted to be used on lakes under BAA control.

Bailiffs will perform ad-hoc checks on rigs to enforce this rule.

ANY member found using prohibited hooks will be asked to

surrender their membership and be issued with a “producer”

and asked to leave the fishery and membership is suspended.

A disciplinary hearing will take place and the member may

attend.

The member loses BAA membership rights and may not attend

fisheries during the period of being suspended.

It is extremely likely that the result of the hearing will be a

ban.
