PLEASE CHECK FOR ANY RULE CHANGES ON ARRIVAL AT FISHERY & PRIOR TO FISHING.

hi alan , we had boldings a few years ago , the fishery banned worms the day before because their teams were getting battered by lads who knew how to fish them , also you couldent fish within a metre of the bank

Hi Mick, i phoned Boldings on Monday to check on the state of play before posting rules, apparently rules are as per web site at present, Chestnut recorded seven tons on a recent open match mostly caught down the edge, so hopefully we will keep up the venues good form & catch a few.

Hi All went to boldings last week to have a look I asked about worm and it is only on there opens that they have banned them it is ok to use them on club matches

When it says no clouding the water with dyes, I'm assuming feeding soil to cloud water is ok
