We have now completed works to close off more swims and install purpose built swim fronts to the remaining ones. The number of swims has been reduced to fifteen but obviously each one has more dedicated water; though all fishing on Island Lake remains short range or margin fishing. Due to the construction of the new swim fronts on Island Lake the rules have been updated to include the prohibition of 'stage stands' as these are completely un-necessary and only damage the wood-work. Fishing is only permissible from these purpose built swim fronts.
