  1. We are talking about a virus here, not bacteria, which is a completely different thing a far lesser problem. Viruses produce spores that can lie dormant in a completely dry state for goodness knows how long and toxins that cannot be dealt with by drying or lying a net in the sunshine, freezing them or giving them a good talking to. Add food and water and your virus comes back to life, hence the requirement for a dip. If it was as simple as drying a net, that would the advice given.

    Well I think everybody is in agreement that there is a problem and once again the people in the know have come up with the answer see Link ( Page 8 ) which is unworkable.

    I think the problem has solved its self as most people do arrive at a fishery with dry net, whether it has been dried out on it`s own or been left in the sun etc

    I live on the Wirral and have never heard of any waters that have been contaminated in this area, is it possible that the press/media have blown it out of all proportion as usual.

  2. Hi all

    I was thinking of writing an article on my website on the fore and against on dipping your landing/keep net before fishing

    Some fisheries have dips others don`t.

    Some people say a dry net is OK

    Some people say it must be in soak for a leased 40 Min's for the chemical to take effect

    I was wondering if there is an official environment policy.

    Does anyone know for sure.

    This tip may help you

    I had the same problem of loosing cage feeders

    What I use now is ladies hair rollers, the plastic ones, cut them to size then add your lead
