A STATEMENT FROM THE TYNE ANGLERS ALLIANCE: Feb 2010

 As you all know the TAA have been in discussions with the latest owner of the Lakeside complex at Fellgate regarding his decision to halt angling on the site

 Although both our secretary Stan Henderson and indeed The Environment Agency have talked to him, and explained the need for local angling at Lakeside, we have been unable to persuade the owner to reconsider. We are therefore obliged to inform all TAA members and affiliated member clubs that the decision to cease ALL angling at Lakeside is now absolute and in force.

For the avoidance of any doubt please be advised that The TAA now have no jurisdiction over the two ponds at all. We have also had it put to us that ANYONE angling in future will be liable to prosecution, so please inform all members of this fact, and remove the waters from your club books.

We understand that the owner would like to develop the site, and if that happens and the ponds are filled in, The Environment Agency will help rescue the fish, but as things stand at present no fish are to be removed.

Over the years Lakeside has been the subject of complaints regarding irresponsible anglers leaving litter and behaving badly, and whilst it would be wrong to say that their actions were the reasons that caused angling to be lost, it is true that we would have had more local support to keep angling open had our behaviour been better. Perhaps all clubs should learn from this

Whilst disappointed at the outcome on Lakeside the TAA however remain optimistic about coarse angling in the region. The new fishery at Hexham's Wydon Burn which has seen Hexham AA join the ranks of the TAA is a positive step, and they are other opportunities in the pipeline as we speak.

The two Lakes at Killingworth, the two stretches of the tidal Tyne at Newburn and the much improved Throckley Reigh are of course unaffected by what has happened at Lakeside, and remain open to all TAA members.

Thank you for your support. If anyone ever wishes to attend a TAA meeting they are more than welcome. They take place on the third Tuesday of every month in the Empire CIU Club on Salters Road off the High Street, Gosforth.
