River improvement works - During 2025 the club worked with the Wessex Rivers Trust to carry out habitat improvement works to the River Meon between the M27 road bridge and River Farm Carp fishery. The work involved the installation of 9 large woody debris structures. The hope is that these will provide a number of benefits; firstly they will scour the river bed, clearing away any silt and providing clean gravel to encourage spawning of wild fish. The second benefit is they will encourage the growth of marginal vegetation - providing a refuge for small fry, trout parr and a home for aquatic invertebrates. It is hoped that more habitat and river improvement works will be carried out in 2026 with projects currently being planned for the Abbey Meadow and the Titchfield Mill sites.

More information on how large woody debris can improve river habitats can be found in the Wild Trout Trust Chalkstream Habitat manual, linked below:
