FLY FISHING SECTION ANOUNCEMENT


BMAA have to sadly announce that its fly fishery will close on October 26th. Hansons have given us one months notice to stop fishing here so that they can use the lake as an operational silt trap. No-one will be allowed to fish it from that date.

We have obtained a section 30 (fish movement order) from the Environment Agency to allow us to move as many coarse fish as possible to the nearby Oddstone lake.

From 17th October until 25th October all senior members will be allowed to fish the fly lake. They may use any bait or fishing method. All trout may be taken and all coarse fish moved.

We ask that details of all fish caught are “logged”, with weight and species noted. We would very much like to know how successful this operation is. The details should be sent to the secretary in writing (please don’t ring!!).

bet you wont get a space on the lake be like sardines hope the lake gets emptied and put some pike in oddstone cuz it needs it, then it will get hammered

Zanderman... when where they removed? any size? Without wanting to hijack the thread any idea how big the Pike go in Oddstones? (PM me if prefered)

dave they have not been removed......pike men have had two pike days and were unable to catch any...one was caught last week 14lb on the fly and put back..pike have been seen thirty plus

That's what I thought Smurf... very few had been caught during the pike days.

And i was sure a lot of them had taken a walk to the lake above the fly lake.....oh well must be mistaken.

zanderman any pike caught in trout lake under 10lb was put in that back lake..all double figured pike were put back in trout lake.
Ive put two back in the past two months 12lb and a 14lb

some one sent me this picture last week. at trout lake

Nice to see there was good use of an unhooking matt . !!

You don't need an unhooking mat for a dead fish!
