On the 30th May our bailiff John Ilott found litter, tea bags and cigarette butts in swim No 19 at Langford Bridge.
The Committee cannot believe that a member of our club could act in this way. This is not acceptable.
Firstly what a selfish act – the offender had no consideration for other members using the swim and secondly the offender risks the club being punished by our landlord as the rubbish could be blown into the field with the horses.
Under Rule 27 h) no litter is allowed to be left in your swim after use.
If you are unlucky to find litter when you arrive at the swim – please take it home with you and inform – Tommy Eldridge our Fishery Officer – 07789 982711 – of the incident.
If anyone is caught leaving litter in a swim or anywhere on our fisheries you will be punished for the infringement of the rule 27 h).
Rule 27 h) Members or their guests must not leave litter, line, hooks or weights on any part of the Society’s waters.
Please help us to keep our fisheries clean and tidy.
Thank you for your help.
