Pike Rods at Blithfield

Derbyshire County Angling Club has once again been offered some pike fishing rods at Blithfield reservoir by Blithfield Anglers.

Members who are interested in obtaining a rod(s) should write or e-mail Ron Trevis (Fisheries Secretary-further details in the Club Diary) as soon as possible as the rods will be distributed on a first come first served basis. This is due to members in the past booking rods and then changing their mind later when it was improbable that the rods could be taken by other members.

It would be preferred if the rods were booked in pairs-that is by the boat. If a single angler books a boat Ron will try and find another person to fill the boat. Consideration will also be given to a member sharing a boat with their guest.

The cost is £45.00 per angler per day (£90.00 per boat per day). This is a non-profit making project run by DCAC for the benefit of its members.

Preference will be given to anglers who buy these rods when it comes round to the "free" pike fishing days offered to the Club by Blithfield towards the end of the season.

The dates are as follows:

Members of Derbyshire County Angling Club should be aware that arrangements for visiting this fishery have changed from 16 th June 2008.
The Club has agreed to allow the use of the fishing rights to Mr. Tony Lomas, the Landowner and farmer at Holme Nook Farm, who will be selling day tickets to the general angling public.
In return Mr. Lomas has agreed to give 6 Club members free access to the water on any one day and will ensure that 6 fishing places are available. In the short term he will extend that permission to any member's guests or accompanying children or grandchildren.
Members should follow the rules in the current Club Handbook.
Members must also use the booking in form at the checking station and hang their disc on a vacant hook, once a checking station is in place.
Please cooperate fully with Mr. Lomas, if you have any questions or concerns please write to the General Secretary .
