Twin Bridges Access Gate

The new padlock and chain recently fitted to the access gate has again been removed/ stolen. It has been decided that the gates will now remain unlocked. All anglers are requested that the gates are closed upon leaving.

Match Anglers

The committee agreed to add an additional £1.00 to off set the ever increasing cost of trophy engraving which has tripled over the last few years.  The additional £1.00 applies only to the following matches:

           Norman Chenoweth Memorial Open Match

Ted Stokes Memorial Open Match (Canal Championship)

Friday Night Series Matches

John Farrow Memorial Match 

Match Pegging Fees

At many fisheries the number of pegs required by the club are to be booked in advance. Once an angler has agreed to attend a match where pegging fees are required, they must pay the fees regardless of attending the match or not.

New Members

This small local club is always looking for new members both young or a bit older? If you enjoy pleasure fishing or friendly/ competitive match fishing look no further for a friendly club to join. Please see Association Membership page for details of cost etc.
