IMPORTANT NEWS FOR THIS WEEKEND
We have received an email from the National Trust regarding the closure of Staunton Harold Reservoir on Saturday 7th December 2024, this due to the extremely high winds forecast for that day. The National Trust have implemented a High winds policy which they put in place for the safety of all water users, this is to mitigate any human injury due to the severe weather, as we lease the water from them we have to adhere to this policy as part of the lease agreement, so there will be no Fishing at Staunton Harold on the above date.
CANAL
The BMAA no longer has the fishing rights on the canal so you can no longer fish the canal using your BMAA ticket. If you wish to fish the canal please get in touch with the canal and rivers trust and purchase a ticket from them.
