The Angling Trust has created a dedicated support helpline for angling organisations. The association also recommends refraining from fishing until further notice, according to the Government restrictions announced on the 23rd of March. More information is available on the Angling Trust dedicated support page that is regularly updated with the latest news and is available on their website.
We acknowledge the positive effects of outdoors activities for the well-being of people but caution to proceed with extra care when planning activities such as fishing trips.
Possible steps to going back fishing:
• Keep at least 2 meters away from other anglers, also other people (general public).
• Wash your hands regularly and keep hand sanitiser in your car, jacket and tackle box. Use regularly and disinfect tackle after use.
• As far as possible, avoid travelling far to go fishing. If you need to travel, bring food, drinks, bait and equipment with you to avoid
buying it at destination increasing the risk to spread the infection across the location.
• Fish as far as possible alone or eventually only with members of your household.
• If possible, drive alone. If you are fishing with other people, arrange individual means of transportation.
• Do not fish with elderly or with people belonging to other vulnerable groups as they are at risk of falling seriously ill if infected with
coronavirus.
Club boats:
Boats to be sanitise before each fishing trip and fully cleaned after each fishing trip.
Small number of anglers on board to observe the 2 metre rule.
Keeping 2 metres apart when queuing to board one at a time and taking up the allocated position on the boat.
Bring own food, drink and cups etc.
Avoid close contact banter.
Sanatise hands regularly, or as required.
May have to not allow vulnerable elderly members on board until the virus is fully under control.
Please comment so we are ready to fishing when we can.
