Holiday query

[wotnobivvy]

I have been tasked by the family to arrange a holiday with fishing (freshwater). Looking at some sites I naturally read the rules. As I sometimes go carp fishing I was interested to see that some sited say no fixed or bolt rigs. I usually use the Korda rig system where the lead will  break away if it gets tangked. I understand no fixed rig but what about a semi fixed one like the Korda. would that class as banned or not. I would appreciate your learned comments guys

TBH, I'd contact the person, or organisation making the rules.

The only "bolt rig" I ever use is a running ledger, with a rubber float stop behind it, that can be slid down to lock the lead - That's certainly not fixed, but it is fixed enough to set the hook.

I fish a lot of Matches, which are all on Commercials. Mainly around York, Doncaster & Goole areas.

Take from me, that at the aforementioned, (but only where the NO BOLT RIGS rule applies) they mean Free running, Inline feeders & bombs.

I'd be tempted to go down the Commercial route which have 3 or 4 Lakes so you can swap about if Matches are booked (They nearly always keep one or rotate for pleasure)

Also, I guess the Idea is for the family to catch a good few fish at a not too hard, well stocked venue??
