Members Booking Arrangement Update
As of 1st October 2022

The Committee have decided that as of 1st October 2022 the online booking arrangements and catch reports will be de-activated and advance booking will no longer be necessary. There will be no restriction on the number of Anglers fishing at any one time.
The Fishing Hut is already open for use by Members and their Guests and we, therefore, intend to return to the pre-pandemic system of using a register (kept on the table in the hut) to :

1. Log in on the day by recording the date and time you arrive
2. Log out, including the time you depart
3. Record your catch from each Lake ( details required are noted on the sheets) and use the scales in the hut to weigh your catch and heaviest fish (if kept). Fish weights for fish returned may be estimated.
4. There is also a column to note any other information you wish to impart (this includes fish quality)
5. The recording procedures also apply to Members guests, and if not already paid online, the guest fee (£25) should be posted in the Honesty Box on the wall beside the desk.

It is not only a syndicate requirement, but also an Estate requirement that times of arrival and departure be recorded by members and their guests.

As always, records of catch returns are important to us so that we can monitor the fish released/kept and the stock levels for re-ordering fish.
Fishing is fly only (no droppers). Fish limits, hook sizes, use of barbless hooks and limitations on guest visits etc. are all referred to in the syndicate rules. It is every Member’s responsibility to familiarize themselves with these rules.

Should you wish to raise any matters from time to time with the Committee then please do so by email. The address: peter@penshurstflyfishing.co.uk remains active and is probably the easiest method of communication.
The Committee wish you all tight lines.

Peter Bentley (Treasurer)
