Have to pay £100 just to get on the list but its a list that only the chosen few ever make it off
I hear they are putting a rotar into effect next year that will really punish the weekend angler

Believe me, you are lucky if you get anywhere near making it on the list in the first place.....

The new time rules, (it's not a rota) will not punish the weekend angler at all, if anyone, it will punish potential full-timers.

Yeh, was under the impression that if you had to ask its probably not a go-er.

Got to be in it to win it though

Is it correct that you actually have to fish Folly's second lake before even being considered for the main lake?

A victim of its own success perhaps?

Maybe yea. Loveley place with a great head of fish but as is common on places like that the old pound signs rule over the greater good!! From what I've heard of late the numbers have been trimmed to acceptable levels but at the expense of the cost of the ticket!!!

Turning into a bookable venue in June next year if anyone wants to fish it. See Swimbooker.

Apparently has been stocked with a number of smaller fish, (singles and low doubles) to compliment what is left of the original stock.

Hopefully the fence has been upgraded to keep the Otters out!
