PLEASURE ANGLER: "Pleasure anglers were supposed to have pegs reserved on the old river. Competitions are now taking over. There can be no space at all at weekends. All pegs can be booked up even if they are not all used. They promised the old river would never be used for matches. I can't drive to other locations and am being pushed out by the people who come in for competitions. Even all of the disabled pegs are matched up.
It's all down to money. There was talk that they would give the river up. It is unlikely anyone would take it over. There could still be matches and it would be better for the pleasure anglers."
