12, No shelf life boilies

13, No self take photography.

14, If your fishing more than 18 wraps to the bar  you're too far ( don’t fish into the gaps )

15, we have added bark chip to the swims to make them quieter, so some longer bivvy pegs can be useful .

16, No maggots or worms

CARP CARE : The most important thing, when you land a fish

( Get everything ready before the carp comes out of the water )

1, leave the carp in the landing net , with the landing net in the net station for 10 mins whilst you get sorted, scales, camera etc.

2, cut the line , roll the net down

3, slide the sling under the net & Fish and ideally 2 x people lift the carp out onto the mat

4, Keep pouring water onto the fish.

5, just take 6 photos and get the fish back

6, ideally 2 people carry the fish back with the sling bars apart, so you do not squash the belly of the fish, hold the carp in the water until she kicks off

NEW RULES : As a Syndicate evolves new rules need to come into place to ensure the well being of the carp, these are as follows.

1, No nuts of any kind including tiger nuts

( particles like hemp, corn,maize, wheat, chick peas,maples ,tares etc are ok )

2, No naked Rigs can be used, also No naked chods, you must use rig tubing on all your rigs

With a minimum length of 12 inches. Chods can only be fished with tubing .

This is because 2 big fish “ DD” and “ junior” both lost big scales due to naked rigs and lost weight.

( when I fished the social I used tubing it made no difference and I know paul viner uses rig tubing

and he has caught the most fish for the last 2 seasons )

3, When I bait up from the boat, if you want me  to bait up a spot for you!  cast a marker float out and I will know, if there’s no marker float I will avoid you and bait as far away as possible.

4, Both rods must be fishing in your swim, you cannot cast them into the next swim because the fishery is quiet, if you need to move just move, it affects the movements and behaviour of the fish.

A few Tips

The quieter you are the better your chance, minimise casting & spoding

Pin the line down

Put pellets in your mix, I feed 11mm pellets with the maize. ( we sell them at the monument )
