Hi Mick
Yes, ...Well a quick response from Anthony.<br /><br />Hi Mick<br />Yes, this has recently been reviewed and I am attaching the guidance sheet for members. Braided main line is fine, we have had a few problems with uncoated braid hook lengths but the rules have been updated. I know you always have the safety of the fish in mind, and we think that these regulations are a good balance. <br /><br />I’m glad you reminded me about this as it needs to go on the website. Let me have a few photos when you can.<br /><br />Best regards<br /><br />Anthony Simmons<br /><br />Secretary<br />Leamington Angling Association<br />01926 312319<br /><br /><br /><br />Leamington Angling Association<br /><br />MEMBERS – PLEASE NOTE IMMEDIATE RULE CHANGES<br />The committee has recently reviewed the ban on braided hooklinks and in<br />light of modern materials has concluded the ban on braided hooklinks should<br />be amended as follows:<br /><br />Uncoated braided hooklinks remain banned <br />For clarity examples of banned uncoated hooklinks are as follows<br />Kryston silkworm, Kryston supersilk, Kryston Quicksilver, Richworth sorcerer<br />and Wychwood deception.<br /><br />Coated braided hooklinks are now permitted <br />Examples of coated braided hooklinks are as follows:<br />Korda N-Trap soft, Korda Soft, Korda Stiff, Suffix camfusion, Kryston Super<br />Mantis, Kryston Mantis Gold plus many more.<br />NOTE – Short sections of coating can be removed to create hinges<br />within the rig up to 3 inches in length in total. If you exceed this then<br />you will be deemed to be using an uncoated braided hooklink which is<br />banned.<br />As you can see this rule is a vast improvement on rig choice for the angler <br /> over the mono only rule. Please note that if anglers are found to be<br />using uncoated braid then this rule can be revisited so please fish within the<br />rules.<br />The committee has considered many points of view on this subject, which has<br />also been raised directly by members in the feedback from the previous year’s<br />questionnaires. This rule change, as with all rules, will be subject to an<br />on-going review and amended if required.<br />If anyone wishes to discuss or seek clarification on this matter please feel free<br />to contact myself Chris Morris on 07974435880.<br /><br />Plastic Baits<br />The committee has also resolved that the use of artificial baits (plastic corn, plastic casters/maggots etc) will be allowed for a one year trial period. Please ensure that these baits are rigged securely so that they are not eaten by fish.Mick Neweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05534025506569660200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185482678332207687.post-14848925042152723052012-07-19T07:43:07.392+01:002012-07-19T07:43:07.392+01:00Why comment if you're not 100% sure, it is the...Why comment if you're not 100% sure, it is the Leamington stretch btw.<br /><br />The only reference to braid on the website / book as far as I can see is for Snitterfield Reservoir where a coated braided hook length must be used. In my case I've used a fish safe coated braid for the hook length and I always use a long leader.<br /><br />I've emailed Anthony for clarification.Mick Neweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05534025506569660200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185482678332207687.post-82125360738654998682012-07-18T23:20:09.473+01:002012-07-18T23:20:09.473+01:00Unless this is the BAA stretch of course then it m...Unless this is the BAA stretch of course then it might be ok?
