9th July.
EA guidelines advise the suspension of all fishing at temperatures above 19.0c/66.2F – the advised temperatures for Salmon is actually a degree lower. As Endsleigh water is currently at 22.5 0c I am requesting all members to cease fishing until the water temperature drops. This guidance is in line with the action of other fisheries in the south west including the Lower Water.
Allocated and booked fishing may be rebooked free of charge subject to availability. If Members have any questions do get in touch with me or John Dennis.
