Won't be any parks left let alone park lakes in the Thurrock area of Essex if the council carry on the way they are. Bunch of crooks.

The Angling trust have come in for a lot of stick. Unfairly in my opnion. But they have definitely come to the for when Angling has come under threat. As well as managing to reinstate fishing g on various public waters. They only recently managed to protect the fishing rights on a local club lake to me. The wildlife trust with very little notice decided to remove the fishing rights. Which the club had held for 80 plus years. But with a few concessions managed to secure the rights for a few more years. Angling really is at threat. And having the Angling trust on our side is really a plus..

Amen 
@ Hitman, Shakerley Mere, yes they do, and they're regularly clearing dangerous trees etc. They have that duty anyway though as it's a popular walking/dog walking spot as are a lot in Cheshire.

Wouldn’t councils have a duty of care to keep maintaining these lakes ??

Can see this happening more and more.. Not because of any kind of green agenda. But because local councils can't afford the upkeep. A local council run park lake I grew up fishing. Although not closed. Has over recent years been run into the ground. Become a bit of a free for all with no management at all. Wouldnt surprise me if I went down there one day and there were no fishing signs up.. These type of waters are not only a way of introducing young anglers to the sport. There also a readily accessible venues for anglers who can't afford extortionate day ticket and Syndicate fees. And wait tens years to get on there local club lakes... Long live the Council Park lakes..
