I'd rather fish somewhere that doesn't have the membership numbers to mean every swim would be taken, but that's just me. Donnygooner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscsha Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 @smufter out of interest what happens if you want to stay longer than booked but someone else has booked your swim and the carp are in your area ? p.s nothing personal against you just that your chosen water uses the system . yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd vacate the swim and wish the new guy coming in all the best! I get what you mean, but I only fish set sessions anyway. No real difference to fishing a day ticket water with set times of 7 til 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 I'm not a great one for lakes with loads of rules, for my fishing. This may have changed over time, but rules are in place usually to cater for the 'most stupid' denominator or the 'idiot factor', although idiots are usually idiots whether they follow the rules or not. At least with rules in place they can be safely removed...  If the rules state no leaders, no leadcore I'm happy enough, doesn't affect my fishing. My biggest turn-off is as others have said, being booked or stuck in a swim, although Smufter's lake with the common sense rules on that, that appear to have been carefully applied does still sound very attractive.  On Suffolk Water Park, I don't like being stuck in a swim, not being able to move. If I arrive on Monday, set up on showing fish, and by Tuesday they have moved, so would I, but you are booked into a swim and may be stuck.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
