New arrangements at anglers fishing at Daneshill Lakes
Starting
on Sunday 16th June, the arrangements for anglers fishing on Daneshill
Lakes at Lound will be as follows:
The Car Park Lake will be available for anglers to fish on a day ticket
priced at £2.50 per rod (maximum of two rods). Day tickets must
be purchased in advance from the Top Shop Newsagents at Ranskill, and
fishing will be allowed from dawn until dusk.
Concessionary tickets for senior citizens and youngsters under 16 years
are priced at £2 per rod. However under 16s will only be allowed
to fish if accompanied and supervised by an adult angler who is also fishing.
There will be no day tickets available on the bank. Any individual found
to be in breach of this rule and not in possession of a day ticket, annual
permit or a syndicate ticket will be classified as poaching under Section
32 of the Theft Act of 1968 and liable to prosecution.
Season permits are restricted to the Car Park Lake only and they are available
at a cost of £25 for anglers over 16 years of age. The season permit
will run from 16th June 2002 until 15th June the 2003 inclusive. Time
scales of fishing are as above and season permit holders will be allowed
to use two rods if they wish.
Any individual interested in purchasing a season permit should send a
cheque for £25, made payable to DLAC, accompanied by a passport
photograph and a medium sized stamped addressed envelope and send them
to DLAC, 89, Windsor Road, Carlton in Lindrick, Worksop, Notts. S81 9DH.
If no stamp addressed envelope is enclosed, there will be no reply.
There will not be any day tickets or season tickets available for purchase
for any of the other waters at Daneshill because these are reserved exclusively
for syndicate members only.
Such members are the only ones permitted to take their vehicles beyond
the carpark gates onto the complex, whether the gate is open or not. Any
other angler found to have parked their vehicles beyond this gate will
be wheel clamped.
All anglers fishing at this complex must be in possession of a current
Environment Agency rod licence and all EA regulations will apply.
Litter, discarded line, tins, damage, excessive noise etc will not be
tolerated. Anglers should conduct themselves in a proper manner and not
upset or disturb other users, and they should show care and understanding
for the welfare of the resident fish stocks.
England Youth Trials
Congratulations
and best wishes are extended to five of Worksop and District Junior Anglers
who have been invited to take part in England Trials next weekend at Furston
Lake, Milton Keynes.
The five individuals involved are Craig Locke (North Anston), Steven Forster
(Dinnington), Marc Foy (Langold), Andrew Landells (Harworth), and Andrew
Pickersgill (Worksop)
Some of the country’s top young anglers will be congregating to fish
the trial matches that are being organised by England Coach, Mark Downes
and his assistant Joe Roberts who will be selecting the best possible
squad to represent the Drennan England Youth Team to fish in the World
Youth Championships on the River Arno near Pisa, Italy on Saturday 27th
and Sunday 28th July.
This prolific river is expected o provide catches of between 30 and 45lbs
in the three hour matches.
Mark Downes said: “The River Arno has huge stocks of carp and catfish
and the venue is best suited to youngsters who are used to catching big
weights on a pole from managed fisheries under pressure.”
Grafton Permits
The annual
permits for the ensuing season are now available for collection at the
club’s sponsors Ken Ward Sports of Carlton Road Worksop, Notts.
Any spare permits not collected after the 8th June will then be distributed
on a first-come first served basis (in date order) of registration from
the waiting list.
Any individual who cannot produce their old permit will have to go on
to the waiting list.
