Bloody annoying that bods jumping the list.
For some mad reason, I put my name down for the RK fisheries Black Card. Don't know why, just fancied it. Got put on the list, think it was 2014 or 2015. Anyways, not heard a peep about it, not that I'm that interested in it. Wouldn't mind fishing Wrasbury No: 2 again though, well apart from the planes. Did my nut in in the 90's

A lot of syndicates won't even consider you based on a ‘cold' enquiry. If they can fill the quota year after year with existing members or mates/recommendations from existing members then they often won't entertain someone who randomly enquires, regardless of how squeaky clean you might be. Best bet is to get to know other anglers through where you usually fish, more often than not people will have tickets elsewhere and as long as you're not a pr*ck most people will help a guy out with a recommendation.
To be honest I get it. You could let someone join who knows nobody, they could be a nightmare and you end up losing loyal members as a result.
One lake I know has a rule that if you f*ck up, both you and the member who recommended you gets banned. Good way to make sure all proposed members are decent blokes.

That last bit you mention is a good idea. Keeps the Muppets away that spoil things for the rest.
You're right about knowing others that can forward you. Got a few irons in the fire so to speak at the moment.

“I'd be really surprised if I ever got black listed from any syndicate seeing as I'm not a pest, rule breaker, do drugs or drink. That clean I squeak”
Bet you're a hoot at parties
