These usually take place on lengths 4 and/or 3 often referred to as the Bottom and Middle lengths, although length 2 (the Hirst Wood length, or Top) can sometimes be used. They are the lengths we have fishing rights on both banks. Note: on length 1 we only have the right bank.

Surely this is a rhetorical question? The state of the weed is making the fishing almost impossible, if not dire, the weed is predominantly canadian pondweed, which probably the most resistant to cold temperatures. The weed in the past has … Continue reading
The pet food stall in Shipley Indoor Market has also been appointed as a Ticket Agent.
The collection of yearbook data online is temporarily unavailable.
Similarly the ability to obtain the lock code for Tong Park and to buy yearbooks online is not currently available.
These are following the move of the website from one web hosting provider to another, which has been more problematic than was expected. This became seriously delayed when it became necessary to split the website into several sections to improve performance by splitting the data collection part off into a separate database.
Prices of yearbooks are unchanged at £20·00 for Adults and £10·00 for Ladies, Veterans and Juniors.
Has our Yearbooks and Day Tickets available for sale.
The cutting exercise took place Saturday 25th June, Saturday 2nd July and was planned for 16th July but the weather was too unpleasant. The turnout was low but this did not matter since the logical method is to cut from the east outlet where the prevailing wind should blow the cut weed, and are easier since fewer and easy to work round tree trunks/branches were involved.
About a third of the lake has been cut so far. Since the next portion requires much more difficult to work around tree trunks and branches more then 2 people are required since rope ends have to be passed round tree trunks and branches. Rakes are a useful extra to remove the cut weed when it has blown to the bank. Much already has and needs to be removed from the water. At least 2 people have to be wearing thigh or chest waders, to pass rope ends round tree trunks from the waterside.
I have the necessary equipment stored at home but will need someone to assist with it’s transport to and from Tong Park, since I currently have no vehicle.
please get in touch if you can assist either by phone on the usual numbers 01274-214441 or 07779747139 or email gensec@saltaireangling.info

Today is the first day of the coarse-fishing season, so keep-nets may be used on the river and any baits are allowed. Last Saturday, between 7am and 8am, the gate was left open and the lock combination still set. The gate was re-locked but by noon the gate was again left open and the lock had disappeared. Members should note the lock does not shut with the combination set. If the gate continues to be left open, Tong Park will be made pedestrian access only. More information on the web-site www.saltaire-aa.org. Please take your used line, litter and bait containers home with you, including any you see near your peg.

Thursday 16th was the first day of the coarse fishing season, from this date keepnets may be used on the river and any baits are allowed.
On Saturday 11th between 7 am and 8 am the gate was left wide open and the lock combination still set on the lock,
the gate was relocked, by 12 noon the gate was again left open and the lock had disappeared. Members should note the lock does *NOT* shut with the combination set. if the gate continues to be left open, Tong Park will be made pedestrian access only. More information on the website http://saltaire-aa.org
Please take your used line, litter and bait containers home with you, including any you see near your peg.
I will add that a keyholder walking his dogs and leaving at about 8am found the gate wide open, relocked the gate and later at about noon found the gate again open and the lock had gone missing. This is totally unacceptable. Livestock can sometimes be on the field. Consequently the lock code was again changed on the 11th June.
Has our Yearbooks available for sale. Also groceries. Convenient for Tong Park
