Following concerns raised by members regarding interactions between anglers and rowing crews on the Exeter Canal and River Exe, our Head Bailiff, Max Bygraves, recently met with representatives of the University Rowing Club to discuss the issues.
The discussion was constructive, and the club has indicated that where damage is caused by its members, they would be willing to investigate and consider responsibility where appropriate evidence is available.
Members are encouraged to report incidents involving damage to fishing tackle, unsafe behaviour or other concerns. Where possible, please record:
