Redlands Re-Opening
Redlands lake will re-open today, however the lake will still be closed off to All Access between Pegs 1 and 27 (The entire River Bank and half of the Railway Bank). unfortuantely this means that the river is not open for fishing too. This is to allow these banks to dry out because they are still very water logged. Would members please refrain from crossing the roped area, there is honestly nothing to be seen except lots of squelchy mud.
We would also advise members to take extreme care if they are planning on fishing or walking around the Stock Ponds, these too are extremely muddy and parts of the bank are still water logged.

Swim Damage
It has become apparent that there has been some blatant damage to trees in certain swims on Redlands. This is not acceptable. Rule 2 clearly states "No member will alter, damage or in any way change the swims, damage foliage, cut trees, light fires, pitch tents, leave litter of any description, dig for bait, discard line or hooks or anything of an injurious nature."
Any member who is found in breach of the rules will have their membership withdrawn
