The day will start at 8.30am with a light breakfast, tea or coffee and a draw of numbers to allocate swims (14 swims in all)
A maximum of 14 can take part with a minimum of 10 to run it.
It is meant to be a light hearted, social event rather than serious competitive fishing. All are welcome whatever their age or experience.
Fishing will commence at approx 9 am.
A whistle will be blown every 45 minutes to indicate a move of 2 swims. This way everyone has an opportunity to move around the fishery.
Lunch will be served at approx 1.30 pm, which will mark the end of the competition fishing. Fishing can continue after lunch at your leisure.
The winner will be the person with the heaviest bag/limit. On the day the winner will receive a small trophy, with a small trophy going to the person with the biggest fish of the day.
The Overall Winner of all the events will receive the Spring Hill Challenge Cup - to be kept for 1 year.

Planning Concerns Update
The outcome of the planning in September 07 was found in our favour and we were granted a 3 year licence for the caravan, which is the way forward in the planning process. It means that the fishery can continue to run and Lee can now get the Smokery and stock pond up and running (once planning permission has been granted).
Thank you for everyone's support in this matter.
Stocking of doubles
Stocking of large fish commences mid September. During the summer months the stocking of large fish stops (4lb and over) but now the weather has started to cool, large fish will be stcked until further notice.
