BASIC RULES
Details of fisheries are given in your handbook. Read the notes on each fishery before you visit it and pay the greatest attention to parking instructions and boundaries. Infringements of either lead to trouble with the owners.

Litter: No nylon line, plastic bags or litter of any kind is to be left on any fishery. The place for this is in your tackle bag and should be disposed of when you arrive back home. This is to protect the farmer and the fishery.

Glassware: No glassware is allowed other than a Thermos Flask, or a medicine bottle containing medicine. This is for the protection of cattle and human beings and applies to all the fisheries. There are several excellent plastic containers on the market, which are ideal for the purpose of carrying liquids. Do not take meat tins to our fisheries.

Radios: No radios are permitted on the fisheries without an earpiece, this is for the peace and comfort of other anglers.

Handbook: Your handbook should always be studied before you visit water. Persons not in possession of a permit will be treated as trespassers.

Night Fishing: Night fishing is prohibited an all Association Fisheries, Hemmingford Grey Lake, Littleport and The River Wissey permits for which are only available to those purchasing other membership tickets (excluding companion ticket). Junior members must be accompanied and fish within the vicinity of an adult.

Dogs: No dogs are allowed on our fisheries where the public has no right of access.

Rods: You are permitted to use two rods, line and two hooks at a time. Spare rods must be packed. This is for the protection of the fish. No live-bait is to be brought to the fisheries from any other source.

Rod Licences: The Associate Membership permit does not excuse you from this duty. All members fishing our waters should have a fishing rod licence

Close Season: No fishing is allowed on Association fisheries between 15th March and 15th June inclusive, except where otherwise stated.

Our fisheries are precious to us and we have spent a great deal of voluntary labour in keeping them pleasant places in which to spend our leisure time. Please regard them in the same way. We want you to enjoy your fishing and hope that when you get to know us better you will wish to take full membership with some Society.
Should you wish to do this, regular members will assist with advise or you can write to us, we will try to help you.

Matters which may give rise to an insurance claim must be reported to the Office
(020 8520 7477) immediately. Failure to do so could render the membership ticket holders liable for any costs, which may be incurred.

Please Note: The use of Bloodworm or Joker is not allowed on any of our waters except for: From 1st October a maximum of 1 kilo of bloodworm or joker shall be allowed on the Grand Union Canal at Denham Deep Lock, West Drayton to Trout Bridge Lock.
