Disease control: To prevent the spread of waterborne diseases, all fish handling equipment should be thoroughly dried in direct sunlight prior to fishing. Failing to do this puts the whole stock at risk. The risk posed to the venue from diseases such as KHV are increasingly real, so to further safeguard the lake’s future, please ensure all fish handling equipment is on display (in the open air) prior to fishing.

General etiquette

1. Keep within the boundaries of your swim. Rods fished outside boundaries must be wound in when challenged.
2. Swims can only be reserved by anglers actually on the venue. An item of tackle must be placed in the swim you wish to set up in or move into and this must be confirmed with the angler currently in the swim (if it is occupied). Tackle cannot be placed in more than one swim.

3. Bivvying up behind occupied swims is not allowed. Only an item of tackle should be placed there, and no pressure should be applied in an attempt to make a member leave early.
4. Daytime stalking and floater fishing is allowed without removing your session tackle from your swim, but your session rods must be wound in. If other members arrive or wish to move, you may have to decide which swim you wish to fish.

5. Every care should be taken when setting up/casting in not to disturb the fishing of your neighbours.

6. Dogs are allowed. All dog mess should be cleared up and removed from site and dogs should be always under full control.
