the fishery unless in bona fide organised matches that the management
have agreed to. 6. Braided
mainline and leadcore leaders are permitted as long as they are used in
a safe manner. Any angler found to be using either unsafely will be
asked to change accordingly or to leave the fishery immediately. 7. No bent hooks or long-shanked
curved patterns are permitted. These are proven to be a cause of mouth
damage due to "double hooking". Barbed hooks only in a size 12 or
larger. Barbless hooks are permitted in smaller sizes from 14-26 only.
Large barbless hooks are a cause of mouth damage to the fish. Maximum
hook size permitted on the fishery is size 4. 8. Particle baits are permitted in
moderation and they must be properly prepared before bringing into the
fishery. Nuts are permitted, but must be of the recognised pre-prepared
varieties [Dynamite, BaitTech, CC Moore, Hinders etc] to ensure the
safety of the fish. Particle baits will be subject to inspection by the
fishery management, and any particle that is deemed to be not prepared
properly will be confiscated by the management and the angler possibly
asked to leave the property. Trout and halibut pellets are permitted in
moderation. 9. No fish athat

caught doing so will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Fish
are not to be moved between the lakes or the river on the complex. 10. No open fires. Disposable BBQ's
are permitted as long as they are not on the grass. Any angler found
using cooking equipment that burns the grass or any other part of the
fishery will be asked to cease use of the item immediately. Anglers
fishing overnight are asked to respect that other persons [both anglers
and non-anglers] use the property and are asked to act in the manner
that will not cause annoyance to others. The use of lights at night
must be kept to a bare minimum. Any angler found leaving litter will be
banned for life and other fisheries in the area may be notified of
this. Please take ALL litter home with you or use bins provided
[including tea bags, cigarette ends, chewing gum etc]. Please ensure
that your swim is clear of litter before starting so no false
allegation can be made against you. Adequate toilet facilities are
provided, so please use them. Offenders will be banned from the
fishery. 11. No damage or
cutting of trees or plants on the fishery is permitted without the
management's prior permission. Please do not climb the trees. 12. Illegal drugs are strictly
prohibited on the fishery. Alcohol is permitted in sensible moderation.

the right to change these rules at any time without notice, should they
deem the situation arises. The fishery and it's management accept no
liability for loss or damage to property or injury whilst on the
fishery. 14. When fishing for
carp and other specimen size fish, an unhooking mat of at least 36" x
24" is required and should be as well padded as possible. All unhooking
mats need to be wetted before a fish is placed upon them. We also
recommend that a small container of venue water is kept to hand to
ensure that the fish is kept wet at all times whilst out of the water.
Carp sacks are prohibited unless with the fishery management's consent,
prior to entering the fishery. All nets, slings and mats should be dry
before being used on the fishery to minimize the potential transfer of
waterborne disease. Minimum landing net size of 42" is required when
fishing for carp or pike on the fishery. 15. 24 hour fishing is permitted on
the Willow Lake only. Please note the park bailiff will request proof
of payment and will not accept inappropriate behaviour towards any of
our wildlife . Should you need to report an incident please call the
