WATER SHARE WITH BISHOPS STORTFORD & DISTRICT ANGLING SOCIETY (BSDAS)

The Club has again agreed with BSDAS for a water share arrangement. 100 BSDAS members will again be able to fish our water at Straits Mill, Braintree (both lakes and river), and 100 of our members will be able to fish their water “Malcolm Barker Lake” and a short stretch of the River Stort. Full details of
these fisheries including directions can be viewed on www.bsdas.org.uk. Only the following classes of members of this Club will be eligible; Ordinary, OAP, Disabled and Intermediate. This will be on a strictly first come first served basis and successful applicants will receive a BSDAS card in May and will be valid from 1st June. Last year this was oversubscribed and the Club understands a number of these tickets were not used. This year please only apply if you are going to use the ticket on a regular basis so those members who live nearby and would like to fish this venue will stand a chance of getting a ticket. Also last year some members were not able to get a ticket because they did not send in a SAE envelope and their envelope was too small. The BSDAS card will show the gate padlock combination for Malcom Barker Lake for the 10 month period together with their club rules and directions relating to the lake and river.
