We have just been informed taht there will be a rugby tournament at Broadwater this Sunday

Expect extra traffic and noise until 2pm.  Swimming pool car park not affected.

 Silt build up is a problem on our stillwaters.  Some silt is good for lakes allowing aerobic organisms like bloodworm to flourish.  However when silt deposits get too thick they become anaerobic (deoxygenated) and lifeless. 

To help manage this, the FMC are treating all our lakes with a chalk product called SILTEX.  Siltex is a natural product and causes no harm to plants or animals. Siltex particles are very fine – less than 5 microns – and these perforate thick deoxygenated silt allowing aerobic microorganisms to establish and break the silt down.

Siltex takes some time to settle after being applied.  We expect lakes to look milky for about a week after application and for fishing to return to normal within 2 weeks.  We will apply a second treatment of Siltex in early spring and would expect to see improvements in both silt levels and the health of the fish from next season onwards.

The team from 5 Star Fisheries are with us for the week beginning Monday 31^st October.  We will be closing the following waters on these days:

Broadwater:   Monday 31^st October to Tuesday 1^st November

Johnson’s:  Tuesday 1^st November to Wednesday 2^nd November

Marsh Farm – whole complex:  Wednesday 2^nd November to Thursday 3^rd November

Wood Lake and Bramley:  Thursday 3^rd November to Friday 4^th November

We would not normally close our venues on consecutive days but this is the most cost effective way to organise the operation.  We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
