Building better fisheries

Our club is proud of our waters and the condition of the fish that swim in them.  Stocks are maintained to provide a variety of fishing types. Swim comfort and access is a priority.  Ongoing tasks include maintenance of swims, clearing obstructions and snags, improving selective stocking. Action highlights in 2024 covered most of our waters:

  • Conducted major weed removal from Railway Pond
  • Rebuilt swims and constructed a new path at Bog Grove
  • 23 members attended a work party at Totham Pit to rebuild swims and paths
  • Swims were rebuilt at Heron Hall
  • The island at Slough House Farm was cleared
  • The carpark at Station Road on the River Blackwater was cleared
  • Stock management includes:
    • Bog Grove was stocked with specimen tench
    • Carp growth in Totham Pit was encouraged through feed
