18 July – Catch Returns

	Visits	Taken	Returned
Lakes	26	7	15*
River	33	5	22

Water temperatures around the fishery are unsurprisingly high at present and dissolved oxygen percentages correspondingly low (all venues are giving readings below the optimum minimum of 6mg/l):

Rainbow trout lakes: 23 degrees

Little Bognor ponds: 16 degrees

River: 18 degrees

Members have been taking all their caught fish from the rainbow trout lakes for several weeks now. Whilst this current extra hot spell continues, please come prepared to take your caught (stocked) fish from the river too and try not to target sea trout (which must be returned). Should water temperatures rise further in the coming days, the situation will be reviewed, so please check this site before fishing.
