Cormorant Predation
​
The club is taking measures to deter these birds but the best line of defense is people. If any member is passing the pond, please take just 2 minutes to drive down and scare them off.
​
If any members have any suggestions please let the committee know.
Cormorant Predation - 2
Plastic Swans
​
The club has 3 life-sized plastic swans.
In life, swans see cormorants as a threat (especially in the breeding season) and act agressively towards them.
Consequently cormorants tend to avoid swans.
​
These plastic swans are tethered to the solar panels.
Angling Coaching Qualiification
The objective of the club, as stated in the constitution, is "to foster and promote the sport of angling". To this end the club is considering sponsoring a member through the Angling Trust's level 2 course.
The club will cover the course costs and can help with any other reasonable out of pocket expenses.
In return, once qualified, the club would require a couple of days a year for club activities. You would be free to use the qualification privately elsewhere. If you are interested please use the contacts page on the website and we can discuss further.
Text messages from Wantage and Grove AC
The club will occassionally send SMS messages to your mobile phones.
These will be to advise you of events such as work parties, to warn about fishery closures or other urgent matters.
To show they are genuine the text will be addressed directly to you by name.
The system uses a bulk email system so will come from an unrecognised number.
Next Meeting:
Tuesday 2 December, The Bear, Wantage, 8pm
All members are welcome to attend
