Maldon Angling Society

Following feedback from the membership the next workparty on Sunday 26th September will be held at Totham Pit.  This is predominantly to trim up overhanging trees that inhibit casting and also those trees in the water where fish can become snagged and lost.  Litter will also be collected following an increase during the school holidays.  Dependant upon turnout a contingent may also be despatched to carry out similar work at Bog Grove.

Please meet at the container at 8am, if you can bring a saw along that will definitely prove useful.  Contact Sam Gower for additional info.

There are plenty of trees that need trimming up at Totham Pit.

The next working party will be held on Sun 20^th Jun at Totham Pit and Bog Grove as trimming up swims at both venues is our top priority.  Please meet at the container at 8am if you would like to help.

Laurence would like to thank Tom Howlett, Jack Childs, Carl Harris, Pete Newell and Paul Kemp for all their help at the Totham Pit work party on Sun 28^th March where a very successful tree trimming exercise was undertaken.

The next workparty will be held on Sun 25^th April at Slough House Farm to clear swims, carry out general maintenance and cut the weed wire to length.  Please meet (as usual) at the Totham Pit container at 8am (we appreciate that this date coincides with the carp match final at Totham Pit but not everyone was fortunate enough to qualify…).

The next workparty will be held at Slough House Farm and Totham Pit on Sunday 28^th March.  If you are able to assist in any way, however small, please meet Laurence at the container at Totham Pit at 8am.

The next working party will be held on Sunday 28^th February.  Please meet up at the Totham Pit container at 8am.  The exact nature of the works to be carried out will be decided on the day but are likely to include some or all of the following dependant upon turnout:

 Totham Pit tidy up and swim trimming.

Bog Grove tidy up and swim trimming (the access track also requires maintenance work and a tree surgeon will deal with the large fallen tree).

Slough House Farm entrance and fence repairs.

 Laurence would like to thank all of the regular attendees at work parties throughout 2009 and looks forward to your continued support in 2010.

The next organised workparty will be a weed removal exercise at Slough House Farm on Sunday 23rd August.  Please contact Laurence Reeves for additional info.
