10:30am The Crown Rhyader
Open meeting
For a number of years we have not had a venue we can use for a trial in South Wales. This has disadvantaged anglers based in South Wales and we believe could have led to a number of anglers not taking part in the trials.
As an experiment in 2026 we are holding one trial on Chew Valley lake. We recognise that this means that one of the Welsh venues misses out on a second trial every third year but the alternative would be to reduce the number of trials to three which would have exactly the same impact.
We will review the impact of holding a trial on Chew next year and decide on the way forward in future years based on the outcome of that review.
