WATER MAINTENANCE

CINDER HILL FLY FISHING
NEEDS
YOU!
Please help out at a
Work Party |
Vital to the successful
operation of the fisheries,
water maintenance work parties
enable us to maintain our lakes
to provide safe and adequate
access to the waters by keeping
the bankside growth in check,
removing excessive weed etc.
while minimizing costs and
keeping subscriptions
at an affordable level.
This means, that, apart from
unavoidable expenses like rent,
insurance and the need to
maintain a reserve to cater for
the occasional essential capital
expenditure, the rest of the
subscription income is spent on
the purchase of fish for
stocking.
Although sometimes hard work,
work parties are always
enjoyable. They provide a good
opportunity to get to know some
of the other members,
can improve ones knowledge of
the fisheries and fishing and
are all part of belonging to an
organisation
All
members are encouraged to help
out if they are able, working at
their own pace under the
direction of the person in
charge for the session, using
their own or our tools and
equipment. No one is be asked to
do more than they feel capable
of.
Work parties are generally
arranged on a Wednesday morning
during the week, with
participants normally meeting up
at around 9:00am and working
until lunchtime, usually
stopping for a bit of a break
mid-morning.
As an incentive and reward,
those taking part in a work
party earn an additional fishing
visit for each session attended.
Some photos of
typical sessions are shown below to wet your appetite.
