In view of the continuing worry about the Coronavirus, COVID-19 and the danger of club members touching multiple surfaces causing contamination, we have taken the decision to close all the fishing huts and also the catch return boxes. The lakes and ponds will remain open at present and we ask that you comply with the government guidelines regarding social distancing.
Please will all members record the following catch information and send this to the Estate Office via email to lfc@leconfield.net.
- Name and membership number
- Confirmation of the pond/rivers visited
- Date visited
- A record of guests taken
- Number of fish taken
- Number of fish returned
- Weight
- Any Comments
Lakes – since opening day members visited the lakes on 62 occasions and caught 161 trout. Fish were caught from every lake, the best fish weighing 12lb from Lower Figgs.
Of the 161 fish caught, 134 were returned including 2 wild fish from Little Bognor. Several fish over 3lbs were caught at Little Springs. Popular flies were GRHE, PTN and Black nymphs. Blue Flash Damsels were also successful.
The Estate Office will communicate with members by email during the next few months.
