Laybourne Lakes.
(19th April 2004). Please treat the fish with respect, pleasure anglers are recommended not to use keepnets, but if they do, would they please return the fish after five hours.
In matches, two keepnets are required, one for 'silver' fish, the other for Carp. Evidence has been seen lately of fungus on the former, suggesting that that both Carp and 'silver' fish have been kept in the one net.
One of the objects of the Amalgamation is the preservation of fish and spawn.
