Editorial Report

elcome all to issue 106 seems like I have been doing this forever now! I must start with apologues as I hoped the magazine and renewals would have reached you earlier this time around and website updates done quicker, but due to personal circumstances I have been short of time recently. By the time you are reading this all should be back to a prompt turnaround.

The Harrow Angling Society Facebook group continues to be a success with over 50 active members, around 25% of the current membership and some good points have been raised.

Please continue to post and keep up with the good banter. Once we get to the end of the current ticket any that haven't renewed will be removed from the group and will need to reapply by sending a PM to myself with membership number.

This issue is a bit light in content from you the members; please send stories, pictures and any other ideas through to me as always. It would be good to get some more of a feel as to what you would like to see: reviews, opinion pieces and instructional guides are just some of my thoughts. Let me know what you would like to see.

As i am sure you are all aware the website is up and running and I am sure you will agree has clean and functional look to it. I receive a number of queries from members through the contact page which need to be forwarded to the

correct officers, please can you email them directly to the correct recipient for a speedy response.

I would like to thank Mark Mckenna at Baitcraft for continuing to sponsor our competition. As you will see I have changed the competition to see how many of you I can get to have a proper read, lets see who wins this time!

I have added a new 'Notice board' section to this edition which contains information you should all review, again this is an area that if you have something you would like to put to your fellow members please get in contact for the next issue.

Please take note of the contacts on the 'Society Officers' page as the email address's have now changed for all.

I have not had much time to be out on our waters this season and hope to spend more time on the bank this year maybe catch a couple more fish!

I hope to see some of you out there on the bank and please send any articles and pics etc to the new email, by the end of September 2015.

Hope to catch up with you all at the Annual General Meeting, if i dont see you on the bank before then.

Chairmans Report

would like to welcome all old and new members and I look forward to seeing you on the banks or at the AGM on the 29 April. I was please that during the year Terry Skelton agreed to be the new Club President as this will give us his support, enthusiasm and knowledge.

It’s been a busy year and a number of good fish have come out of our lakes – please report those you catch on the new website so we can keep a record of the health of our lakes and please submit your catch so we can award the cups.

During the year you will have received a letter from Matt dated 17 December that advised you of the new Closed Season dates for the Harefield lakes – we need to thank Mike Rees for this as it was part of his HS2 discussions. The letter also covered our new arrangements for working parties so please make sure you get your WP Voucher and send them in with you renewal form.

At the November members meeting there was some discussion on how to improve the lakes. One item was snags on Pit1, this has been addressed and when you visit the lake you will see the Working Parties have removed a number of the worst snags. Interestingly a number of rigs were caught in these snags and a few were illegal , please remember BARBLESS HOOKS only. There have been a few formal complaints that the committee have considered, reviewed and resolved.

However the exercise has shown that we need to make our November members meeting more open and interactive. I will be reporting back to you in the autumn Magazine on how we plan to do this.

I would like to thank the Officers and Bailiffs for their hard work. As per the rules every three years all Officers are asked to stand down. I’m please to advise that all are eager to stand again for a further 3 years and we will be voting on this at the AGM. However there are two vacancies.

Curator and Fishery manager Pit1. This is due to Rob’s work taking to Finland ( ice fishing) and Brian moving home. Both have done a wonderful job for the society and will be missed at the Committee meetings. They will still be members and so you might see them on the Bank. If any member wishes to be considered for either role then please contact Matt Marchant by the 14 April.

As most of you will know Stuart Verity has stepped in to cover Pit1 while Brian has been away clearing his house ( and hiding some of his fishing tackle from his wife!)

Because there have been a number of queries about night fishing, visitors etc we decided to update the rule book which as last done 5 years ago. You will see an item on this in the magazine which will allow you to review the proposed changes in readiness for adoption at the AGM. Thanks to Laurence and Joe Underwood who launched the new website and now we will be using this together with Facebook to keep the membership updated on club news and progress.

Curators Report

H

ello, firstly I would like to say thank you to thank Rob Tuck for his time and support in the role as the society’s curator. With this I would like to also extend to you all the request for one of you to join the committee and furfil this role moving forwards. In the short term as the reports come to the website i am monitoring this and we have had the following reported.

Harefield Pit 1 - Carp 68, Tench 4, Pike 10, Bream 1, Roach 1, Perch 2 Harefieild Pit 2 - Carp 2, Tench 1, Perch 1 Rowley - Carp 17, Tench 2

I would like to take this opportunity to encourage you all to make reports as often as you can especially in light of our current conversations with various parties regarding the impact of HS2 on our waters. Every report will help enable us to demonstrate just what this club and the wider community are possibly going to lose. I do appreciate however that sometimes people who have put a lot of effort in to catch a certain fish may want to keep their success private and as a club we understand this. I would ask that if you do not want it on the web site please send minimal details to me on curator@harrowangling.co.uk so that I can build up a picture of our stock levels. Also please send your pics in for the website and more importantly for the magazine being slightly biased.

To finish, the AGM is fast coming round, why not come along tyo get some tips from the guys that one this years trophys and more importantly raise a glass to them for their efforts.

Harefield Pit 1 Report

irstly I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members that turned up to last years work parties. We had a mountain of work to get through due to the high winds that damaged the trees on the right hand side of the lake. I apologise for the work that never got completed however I hope to remedy this on the work parties this year. We may have to work during the season but will keep this to minimal disruption and will put notices on the main gates of Pit 1.

Brian Busby & his family are moving to Suffolk therefore he has decided to stand down as fisheries manager, he will still be seen fishing around the lake as he will still be working in Hatfield. I would personally like to thank him for all his work and effort over the time he spent as fisheries manager and I am sure the committee will second this.

First couple of weeks to the season started slowly due to the cold weather but improved as the weeks rolled on, a lot of Carp were caught ranging from 12 lb up to the best in season of 32lb We stocked the lake with a good head of Roach & Rudd ranging from 4oz to a good 1 1/2lb, those who took the opportunity to target the roach & Rudd have had a very good days sport myself included. There was a reasonable amount of bream caught unfortunately the tench were hard to come by.

It has been bought to my attention that members were losing a few fish due to snagging, therefore we have taken some of the snags out. If anybody has any suggestions on how to improve Pit 1 please do not hesitate to contact me.

I would like to thank Stuart Verity for kindly stepping in and helping out with the fisheries managers role. I have had an injury to my hand and have been unable to get down the lake and Stuart has been extremely helpful with organising the work that has been done up till now.

Hope to see some of you at the work parties. TIGHT LINES see you around the banks next season.

Website / Facebook

irstly I would like to thank Joe Underwood on behalf of all the members for doing an excellent job of rebuilding our website with not only a fresh look to the outside world, but also a functional tool we can use to communicate information such as work party dates, short notice closures, general news and offers from local tackle shops that support us.

With this appointed representatives from each area of the club will all have access to the back end to update their respective fisheries or news.

You can now return to reporting your fish directly on to the website by following the ‘Catch Report’ link. these are all checked by one of us as admin before they go live on the website. Please make sure you complet all the fields so as the records are complete for other anglers and for the lucky guy who takes over as our curator. I have left four on which are incomplete for you to see though I will update these after the AGM.

With your reports it is always good to get to a picture of your prize catch and please email images to webmaster@harrowangling.co.uk for inclussion on the website and in the magazine. I know a large propotion of you are carp angling, though it is great to know of the progression of other species and see what you are all catching. Please make sure all images are no more than 1.5 MB in size so as not block the mailbox.

As you will have seen the society officers emails have now changed to ‘@harrowangling.co.uk’ email address’s, this like alot of the changes that have been made to take away the risk of anything unfortunatly being lost future with handovers to new officers. or if anyone is indisposed for any lenght of time there is a fall back for others to step in.

The facebook group for members is currently at 54 roughly 25% of the membership and continues to be a good tool to comunicate. Please be aware that anyone that renews their membership past 30th June will need to reapply for the group as I will kick non members as last year. All can see the open Facebook page.

Rowley Lake Report

s per usual a bitter NE wind was in danger of putting the dampers on any action at the seasons end.

I wasn’t at all confident with the forecast as I headed off to Rowley for the usual end of season session on the afternoon of Thursday 12th March.

However things were looking good with fish showing off the double swim as I arrived so swim decision made.

Baits out 6.00pm and at 8.15pm a run to the open water rod produced a 21lb Mirror.

02.10am Friday and a blinding run to the margin rod resulted in a……5lb Bream??!!

Nothing all day Friday apart from some Pike activity off the dam so the lure rod was retrieved from the car and within 30 minutes three Pike had graced the net; best making about 12lb.

No Carp sited all day apart from an early 17lb Mirror to Gary the bailiff behind the island.

As darkness fell back to the serious Carp fishing.

10.30pm average Tench to the margin rod.

02.30am Saturday and an 18.12 Mirror to the open water rod.

05.15am a stunning 16.8 Linear to the open water rod.

12.00 midday. Packed up knackered.

Historically an easterly wind on Rowley has been the kiss of death for me…..next time I won’t be quite so lacking in confidence.

With regard to the water generally: Autumn and Winter fishing has been patchy (unless you know different. If so let us know) Piking was slow with fish up to 12lb but I did hear of some reasonable catches of silver fish during the late Summer early Autumn.

Working parties will concentrate on opening up swims, bank re-instatement and improving the lane and the path around the lake as required.

It is hoped that we can have a meaningful conversation with our landlord regarding silt and heavy tree work.

For those who have expressed concern at the downturn in Tench fishing (unless you are a carp angler!) we will be putting around two hundred 6” to 10” fish in before the start of the new season. Larger fish are way too expensive and hard to get so the policy will be to trickle feed and act on the results.

Usual warnings apply with regard to litter, fouling and access……designated paths and gates only.

If you are anything like us you already can’t wait for the new season…..but then there’s always No1!

Good Luck

Work Parties

s those of you that attend work parties are aware we always have a lot of work to do but only a small proportion of the club members put the effort in each and every year. The society has decided to address this and try and get more of you involved this year.

1. You will see on your renewal forms that the fee’s for non attendance for work parties has now gone up to £25 for the first and £15 for the second.

2. This year you will be issued with a work party token when you complete each work party and with this you must return them with your renewal form etc to Paul as proof for completing works.

3. If you are interested in helping but cannot attend the work party dates please contact the fishery managers and they will be able to arrange with you to get work done on the relevent waters at a time more convienent.

HS2 Update

irstly can you believe it has been five years since the then Labour transport minister Lord Adonis announced plans to build the London to Birmingham High Speed 2 train line? Since HS2 was announced, back in March 2010, HS2 Limited has spent close on a ÂŁ1 billion, but as yet has nothing to show for the money they have spent!

So what has happened in the fight against HS2 since I gave you my last update, back in November 2014?

Well, I have been in contact with Hillingdon Council, who are our Landlords for Harefield No1 & No2, and explained how the ongoing blight of HS2 has impacted on the Society members and its membership numbers. Hillingdon Council were extremely supportive and after some negotiation agreed to amend the closed season dates for Harefield No1 & No2. These changes (as shown below) allow HAS members to enjoy all year round fishing in the Colne Valley. This benefits HAS in two ways, firstly it helps the Society to maintain and attract new members and secondly (should HS2 go ahead) it allows members the opportunity to maximise their fishing time on these fantastic waters before construction starts.

The HS2 Hybrid Bill has now moved to the petition stage and on 15th January the parliamentary select committee paid a visit to the Colne Valley to enable them to see for themselves the impact the planned viaduct would have on the Valley and the surrounding area. Their tour included a stop at Harefield No2 so they could have a good look at the water, including all the facilities at the Hillingdon Outdoor Activity Centre (HOAC). Graham Pearce and I were onsite to chat to the committee and show our support against the planned route and demand a tunnel under the Colne Valley. Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner MP, Nick Hurd was also there and said “This visit is very important because this is the committee that has some power to make changes to HS2. What we are pushing on them is the case for extending the tunnel under the Colne Valley so that we save places like HOAC and take away the impact on the area".

It has been confirmed The Hybrid Bill will not move to its next stage until after the May general election. This means HS2 has the potential to be a real contentious election issue, given only two parties (The Green Party and UKIP) are currently opposed to HS2.

As previously mentioned, local groups against HS2 are campaigning for the Ruislip Tunnel to be extended beyond West Ruislip and under the Colne Valley. Hillingdon Council has commissioned two reports to look at the viability of extending the tunnel.

Both of which conclude that a tunnel is not only the most beneficial option to mitigate the impact on the local area, but it also costs in when compared to the Viaduct option. Given the latest news that the HS2 spur to Heathrow airport looks set to be scrapped, the tunnel option under the Colne Valley has become a real creditable alternative.

Page 13

What next? Graham Pearce and I will continue to work on your behalf to fight HS2. We will be looking at the impact the delay on passing the Hybrid Bill will have on the HS2 construction timetables. We will also be pushing for better mitigation measures for HAS and the Colne Valley, including compensation for HAS and the provision of a tunnel under the valley (should HS2 go ahead).

What can you do to help? Please remember HS2 is not a "done deal", if you get the chance to speak to your local candidates on the run-up to the forthcoming general election please voice your concerns regards HS2 and use your vote wisely.

Harefield Pit 2 Report

e have just seen the season fizzle out without much of a bang, no doubt the weather will improve imminently and within weeks we will all wish we were out angling again.

As is the norm we have to thank the ever vigilant bailiffs for performing their duties over the course of the season and performing adhoc work to clear rubbish, fallen trees etc. Without these enthusiastic people the lake wouldn't be in the good shape it is so many thanks and long may it continue. Also thanks to the clubs own chainsaw crew, the Hermalucs, for turning up unannounced after some strong winds and clearing some felled trees on Dews Farm bank, a most pleasant surprise and very much appreciated, thanks again.

The second half of the season saw the fishing predictably slowing down with species like carp, bream and tench not featuring as much as during the summer and early autumn and anglers targeting other species.

A few turned their hand to float fishing and caught some impressive looking roach and perch using light tackle, prestine roach to just over a pound a half that keep popping up year after year.

On through the colder months and there were some glorious big carp taken by those braving the cold long nights, fish looking resplendent in their winter colours to over 30lb, congratulations to the captors for their perseverance, effort equals reward they say and the smiles in the photos say more than a thousand words!

The pike fishing was good with multiple captures, no big uns reported but fish to mid doubles seeming to be common place. Not as many anglers pursuing the pike on the lake this year, a lot of the regulars choosing a change of scenery.

On to the close season and we have 3 working parties, all Sunday mornings 8-12, booked for 05th April, 10th May and 31st May. We plan to have a good tidy up of trees and removing some snags, primarily on the Peat bank and Railway bank so if you are handy with a saw we would really appreciate your company on these dates. We are aware that people can not always make suggested work party dates due to work or family commitments, please feel free to call either myself or Les on the numbers listed elsewhere in the magazine to arrange alternative dates, there are many jobs that need completing that can be done at any time to earn your vouchers.

As you are aware the seasons have changed and existing members can now angle in a period that was encompassed in the old traditional closed season. The lake will open for angling this year on 1st May, a draw for the eager if necessary will take place at 3pm on Thursday 30th April.

Please be aware that on the Sundays of working parties swims will have to be vacated, no fishing on the lake whilst working parties are taking place.

We look forward to seeing you on the banks, in tackle shops, pubs, other lakes or club meetings, feel free to say hello and have a chat about the lake and its moods and inhabitants, there's a hell of a lot to go at and we're always happy to see new faces pitting their wits on the big pit, good luck to you all.

Noticeboard Rule changes for 2015 The committee has decided to update the rule book to cover the many changes that have been introduced since the last update in 2010. Most changes are cosmetic. However we have also tried to clear up areas where there has been confusion. These have mainly been in the areas of ‘night fishing’. As there are a number of changes we have posted the new rules on the HAS Website ( www.harrowangling.co.uk <http://www.harrowangling.co.uk> ) for you to review. At the AGM on the 29 April we will discuss the rule changes and seek agreement.
