Help stop pests

We understand that there are some reports of KHV outbreaks in fisheries in Essex.

As a reminder and per the Club's Rules please make sure any landing nets, unhooking mats, weigh slings, keep nets etc are bone dry before bringing to a Club water. The best way to dry them is outside, in full sun as the UV in sunlight helps kill harmful organisms.

If you see any signs of fish in distress (especially during this hot spell) do call either:

Robin Merrit 01279 461065 / honsec@bsdas.org.uk

Steve Foster 01279 504663 / chairman@bsdas.org.uk

Thank you all for your help in keeping our fisheries in good shape.

And this is what we want to stop spreading to our waters:
