  • Coarse Fishing Close Season on English Rivers
    Coarse fishing close season on English rivers Appendix 1 – Current coarse fish close season arrangements The close season on different waters In England, there is a coarse fish close season on all rivers, some canals and some stillwaters. This has not always been the case. In the 1990s, only around 60% of the canal network had a close season and in some regions, the close season had been dispensed with on all stillwaters. Stillwaters In 1995, following consultation, government confirmed a national byelaw which retained the coarse fish close season on rivers, streams, drains and canals, but dispensed with it on most stillwaters. The rationale was twofold: • Most stillwaters are discrete waterbodies in single ownership. Fishery owners can apply bespoke angling restrictions to protect their stocks, including non-statutory close times. • The close season had been dispensed with on many stillwaters prior to 1995 without apparent detriment to those fisheries. This presented strong evidence in favour of removing it. The close season is retained on some Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, as a precaution against possible damage to sensitive wildlife - see Appendix 1. This consultation is not seeking views on whether the close season should be retained on these stillwaters While most stillwater fishery managers have not re-imposed their own close season rules, some have, either adopting the same dates as apply to rivers or tailoring them to their waters' specific needs. Canals The Environment Agency commissioned a research project in 1997 to examine the evidence around the close season on canals to identify whether or not angling during the close season was detrimental to canal fisheries.

  • Basingstoke Canal Heritage Footpath Leaflet
    Basingstoke Canal Heritage Footpath Basingstoke Heritage Society INTRODUCTION The Basingstoke Canal Heritage Footpath runs approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) from Festival Place, Basingstoke to Basing House, Old Basing. It closely follows the original route of the Basingstoke Canal. At Old Basing the footpath connects to other public footpaths, including a route through Crabtree Plantation and Black Dam Nature Reserve. Alternatively you can return along the Heritage Path or, for the weary, there is a bus back to Basingstoke. (see information on the back of this leaflet) The footpath keeps to recognised rights of way but in places is currently inaccessible to prams, pushchairs and wheelchairs. Parts of the route may also be muddy at times. Please follow the Highway and Country Codes at all times http://www.countrysideaccess.gov.uk/: • Be safe, plan ahead and follow any signs • Leave gates and property as you find them • Protect plants and animals and take your litter home • Keep dogs under control • Consider other people BASINGSTOKE CANAL The Basingstoke Canal was completed in 1794 and connected Basingstoke to London via the River Wey and the River Thames. The 37 mile route includes a 1,230 yard tunnel at Greywell. The canal was built to provide a more economical means of transporting agricultural goods from Hampshire to London, and coal and fertilisers could be brought from London to Basingstoke.

  • A Simple Key to Canal Water Quality
    A simple key to canal water quality using a biological technique Les Ruse Principal Biologist Environment Agency Fobney Mead Rose Kiln Lane Reading RG2 OSF Tel - 0118 9535939 March 1997 Fax - 0118 9311438 ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 056662 SUMMARY Sixty sites on canalised watercourses in the Thames, South-Western, Midlands and Yorkshire regions were sampled using the Chironomid Pupal Exuviae Technique. Chironomid data were directly related to associated physical and chemical characteristics of each site. Changes in abundance of chironomid taxa were significantly correlated with water quality, after accounting for geographical variation. A 'non-expert* scoring system is proposed for assessing water quality in canals. Scores are attributed to widely distributed, frequently occurring and easily recognisable indicator taxa. A dichotomus key based on six of the these indicators is provided for classifying canal water quality. 1 INTRODUCTION Biological assessment of water quality can require a variety of sampling equipment and methods, depending on the habitats under investigation. For example, a pond net could be suitable for sampling a riffle while a dredge may be most appropriate for a deep-water habitat. The use of more than one method of sampling to compare different habitats will confound the interpretation of data for water quality assessment. During the early 1970's a biological sampling technique was developed which was considered applicable to all riverine habitats, from source to river mouth. The technique requires the collection of floating debris caught behind obstacles at the margins of rivers. Typically, this debris contains numerous skins (exuviae) cast-off by insect nymphs, larvae and pupae. Most numerous among these cast-offs are the pupal exuviae of Chironomidae (non-biting midges).
