Our rules are few and simple.

A small set of Rules and Regulations apply covering our waters, to which we expect all anglers to comply. However, nothing that might be considered unreasonable or beyond expectation.

• Membership is limited (dependent upon waters available)
• Fly Fishing Only on designated waters
• The practice of Catch and Release is obligatory on all waters (barbless hooks only)
• Permission to invite guests may be obtained from the Treasurer or the Head River Keeper. A guest ticket will cost £20 per visit. Only one guest on any one occasion.
• No coarse fish, trout, or grayling to be killed.
• Renewal of membership is dependent upon the return of a catch record by 01 December and annual fees having been paid in full by 14 March.
• Season: 01 April – 29 October
