COVID-19
The Angling Trust (https://anglingtrust.net/covid-19/) submitted a case to government for the early and full resumption of all forms of angling including night fishing and competitions. This has been permitted under the daily exercise rules and as with all aspects of the coronavirus restrictions, please keep well away from fellow anglers.
Should there be a COVID-19 “Lockdown” prior to your arrival, we will contact you to discuss returning monies paid or if you choose, retain your monies for a 2022 visit at 2021 rates. Keep well and keep safe.

Introduction
This month has proven “Difficult” – first with Carp spawning heavily on the 2/3 June and again later in the month. In addition, major thunderstorms around 18th and 19th of the month caused a sudden drop in oxygen levels resulting in fish kill and the loss of some large Cats.
To provide recovery of the specimen lakes a decision was made on the 20th to close Lake 1 (Carp) for the remainder of June and Lake 2 (Carp/Catfish) for the remainder of June plus July or longer if necessary to allow investigations to be completed and the lakes to settle. This is of course disappointing for prospective visitors whose plans are changed and we are very sorry that this has happened.
Summary
Based on logbook entries notable landings to mid-month include 4 x 20lbs plus Carp to 23lbs 8ozs and 14 x 40lbs plus Catfish to 44lbs 7ozs. We are delighted to indicate many new PB’s were set and several PINS were awarded to commemorate catching a first Manor Fisheries specimen fish.
Of special note we congratulate:
Paul Teakle landing 16 x Cats in 24-hours weighing 468lbs 8ozs including 6 x 40’s overnight.
