IMPORTANT MEMBERSHIP UPDATE

COVID 19: COROVIRUS

Following the direction from the Prime Minister on the evening of the 23 March 2020, all Wimborne and District Angling Club waters are closed and the Club match series is postponed until further notice. It is absolutely obvious that travel to our Club’s lakes is not essential. We know that the vast majority of Members will behave responsibly, however if this advice is ignored new locks will be added to all the enclosed waters to physically enforce the closure. Signs will be erected in due course. On the waters where, due to public access, such as at Creekmoor it is not possible to lock gates, fishing must also stop immediately too.

All existing memberships will be extended by the amount of time from the 24 march 2020 until the National lockdown is lifted and your Membership Secretary has agreed to work out a procedure to deal with this. Anyone applying for membership during the lockdown will also not be disadvantaged and the membership will be extended from the date it is accepted until the lockdown is lifted.

Some essential works and bailiffing will be undertaken, but routine work will not take place.

The Club has recently inspected the lakes at Rawlsbury. Access to stock these lakes or to fish them is presently impossible. The constant rain through the winter means that the field next to Chapmans Lake is waterlogged and vehicles are unable to drive in or out.

The Club is in contact with the farm manager and regular inspections will take place. As soon as we are able to stock the lake we will inform members and open the lakes for fishing.

WDAC were honoured to host a Band Of Brothers at Kingsbridge, with the event kindly hosted by Chris Yates, Rob Hughes and Hugh Miles
