RIVER FISHING

To provide members river fishing; we have arranged with Rother A.C to have an associate membership to fish their four stretches of river for a maximum of £20. It does not allow access to any other of their waters. A separate application is available to be down loaded and you should complete and send this I Osborne of Rother with necessary payments and the right sized SAE. This ticket allows fishing on the River Rother North Mill and Woolbeding; the River Arun at Greatham Bridge and Stopham Bridge.

River Arun

A decision has been made not to renew for this stretch so it is no longer available to be fished

River Mole

The work has still not been started to make safe the banks so is unavailable.

Subscriptions

These remain unchanged for 2011/12. A renewal form was been sent with the April 2011 newsletter or can be down loaded from the web site please use a separate form for each person renewing and remember your SAE and photos please.

Family membership

To prevent abuse of the reduced family membership the eligibility has been tightened up. A “family” must include one or more juniors aged 16 or under on June 16th of the season joining or children in full time education under the age of 21 again on June 16th. With a maximum of 2 adult who must be parents, guardians or grandparents.

Non Members and Poaching

The Committee believe that mainly during the week non members are fishing in the belief they will not be asked for their membership cards. Please be on the lookout for anglers whose behaviour or style of fishing makes them stand out. Politely ask to see their membership card and unless it is carried and produced to you they and any guests should be asked to leave and report to the secretary with a description of those fishing. There are regular reports around the country of fish being caught for eating as a favourite food. You should also be vigilant for the possibility of fish being stolen for the same reason.
