 SPAWNING ON OUR LAKES Good Morning everyone As of yesterday the decision was made to close both lakes due to spawning . This is an important part of fish care and fishery management to enable the fish to take part in this event without interference. We know many of you will be disappointed, however we still feel a short period of unknown closer is better than a two month close season. We ask all of our members to understand and respect this decision, as it is so important we do not cause our fish unfair stress during this short closure period. Please also be advise that the match on Saturday has been cancelled for the same reason. Spawning is the act of fish and other aquatic animals releasing eggs and sperm into the water to reproduce. This process is crucial for maintaining healthy fish populations and the overall health of aquatic ecosystems. 

 MEMBERSHIP UPDATE Hi everyone Further to the details held on our membership tab on this web page , we would like to remind al of our renewal members that today is the second to last day your place will held in the club. As you are all aware membership is allocated on a annual basis and we do not send reminders. So this is just a heads up . If you apply late there will be a charge of £10,00 and we cannot guarantee a place as we reallocate spaces to new members each year. It is our intention to close membership at the end of may or before if we feel the lakes are suitably visited and seem full. As an admin team we hope you will support these endeavours as we are finding more and more that people are forgetting to renew until they fish with an old card. kindest regards and enjoy your fishing Michele

Kind regards Michele Fishing isn't just a hobby; for many it's a form of therapy. Research backs this up. Studies have shown that spending time outdoors, particularly near water, has a calming effect on the mind, helping to reduce stress and improve overall well-being. Fishing offers a unique combination of mental and physical engagement. 

 Good morning We find it necessary today to remind some of our members of the importance of reading and following the lake rules. This is important for the safety and enjoyment of all lake users and anglers. We have a zero tolerance policy at the lakes so ensure your actions are not infringing any of our rules as you risk your membership by doing so. We find that the majority of our anglers fish without any rule breaking and just enjoy their days out. However if you are not please adjust you behaviour for the benefit of us all 

 Swim work has been in progress over the last couple weeks . Our volunteer team are working hard to ensure the lakes are prepared for the new season of fishing. just a couple of pictures to show the kind of work they have been doing. great work team 

 Hi all On Sunday 7th April we received 287lb of new tench into Campbells lake. Another massive boost to our re-stocking program to return Tilgate fishing lakes back to the great catching waters of yester year. the weight amounts to around 90 fish to add to the the tench re-stock on both Campbells and silt last year. We are very proud as a team of how much progress we have made and how well the stocks are growing. Our carp stocking program has seen every success producing some beautiful looking doubles in both Campbells and Silt. Our silver stocks are continuing to thrive even though it is a constant battle with our natural predators picking them off . We will continue to invest in our fish stocks and hope that they will carry on doing well and that we will continue to come closer all to remaking this fantastic venue . 

 Members Just a reminder that you can RENEW your membership via our web page. We will hold current members places until 1st May 2024. If you do not wish to join again this year please let us know as we have an extensive waiting list.
