Nice day at Luckfield for Chris
29 December 2024

The 9th double figure fish for Chris Brown at Luckfield today! This one came in at 19lb on the nose (witnessed)!
Spicy crab he tells me πŸ˜‰.. still a few hours of light left yet (the lower pressure has helped I think).
Good angling Chris πŸŽ£πŸ‘πŸΌ.

Microchalk job at Luckfield Lake
12 December 2024

3 men(ish) in a boat & 1 Tonne of Microchalk (siltex) at Luckfield today, what could possibly go wrong πŸ₯΄.. actually, it went very smoothly even though we looked like we’d been employed by Pablo Escobar for a couple of hours πŸ€ͺ.
Thank you: Graham Howard, Jerry Bracey, Chris Ward, Jon Bass, David Tattersall & Nigel Bevis.. job done!

News, Temporary Closures & Xmas
3 December 2024

Dear DDAS Members

A wee bit soggy underfoot in most places at the moment, be careful on slippery banks & platforms if you are venturing out during these colder, wetter months & remember to let someone know where you are and when you should be home (after that one last cast!).  Just a couple of things to let you know about if you do:

1. Temporary closure(s) of Luckfield lake - (a); We will be doing the annual 'Micro-chalking' of the lake on Saturday 7th from 9am & should be finished by 1pm all being well. (b); It will also be closed all day on Tuesday 10th & Wednesday 11th for tree coppicing work on the lane close to the lake. We apologise for any inconvenience caused but it will be for your benefit & safety in the future. 

2.  The Annual DDAS Xmas match at Revels is due to take place on Sunday 15th. The entry fee for the match is £10 with an optional £5 superpool. Open to ALL members & everyone who enters will receive a prize at a minimum value of £15, prizes include a free DDAS membership for the 2025/26 club year & varied amounts of local tackle shop vouchers, booze & chocolate!  Participant numbers are limited to 35 so please book in with Glenn (by text) asap: 07762 582661.... & for the regulars... it will be run slightly different to previous years because our landlord there; Jason Fricker is not running on all cylinders at the moment, we hope he gets well soon!!!

Finally, if your loved ones are struggling with what to get you for Xmas, don't forget to remind them that our local tackle shops can provide tackle vouchers for almost any amount... it makes sense of coArse!!!

We hope you have a peaceful, enjoyable Christmas!

Your DDAS Chairman & Committee
