Tree Felling at Broom Lake
 
Contractors working on behalf of the Southill Estate will start felling the cricket bat willows at Broom Lake from 9am Monday 24th July and this work could extend until 30th September.  The contractors are only permitted to work between 7.30am and 5pm Monday to Friday.  During this time the contractors will be using the track around the lake for vehicle access but the track should remain open for members.  Please respect any notices posted at the fishery regarding these works.  The contractors are responsible for Health and Safety aspects of the tree felling so please follow any instructions given by the contractors.  Please inform an officer of the club if you have any problems during the works.  There will be times when the work will be noisy, which is unavoidable when chainsaws are in use.

 IPA Blunham water 
The IPA do not currently have an agreement in place for the fishing rights on this water  (IPA water 13, p37 of the SDAA membership book 2017-18). 
In light of this and with the river fishing season due to start on Friday, June 16th, SDAA members MUST NOT fish or access this water until further notice.  We will update these instructions as soon as the situation changes.
