Bank Clearing & Fishery maintenance.
Corks AC have a match booking at Fladbury this Sunday the fifth of October & Bank Clearing was planned for the Saturday before. With the storm forecast over the weekend & willing members fishing matches with their other clubs we brought the bank clearing forward to the Thursday Morning.
Frank, Pete, Roger & Dave turned out to clear a few of the less used pegs & Dave & Roger were keen to reduce the height of some of the steps made possible because of Andy’s (Cole) kind donation of a batch of concrete blocks.
With the pegs sorted we then repaired broken steps in pegs 2 & 3. All pegs are now very fishable & safe except for pegs 9 & 12 which are silted up & left overgrown.
It’s been a strange year, with very little rain the growth on the top of the pegs just hasn’t happened. The ground is very firm & without crops in the field, vehicle access is superb.
We have had “so much” help with maintenance this year the attitude from many has been superb & they all deserve a big thank you for their efforts.
