From our point of view the most notable feature is that the cost of fishing Burrator has increased by around 30%. The details are:
Full Day Permit £16.00
Concession Day £13.50
Child Day £4.00
Full Season Permit £250.00
Concession Season £215.00
Child Season £50.00
These price increases are on the face of it rather large and one wonders what is going on in the minds of the SWLT managers. Are their costs escalating by 30% or more, or are they planning to change the stocking levels at the reservoir such that Burrator is no longer a 'Budget Fishery'. It is noticeable that that phrase is nowhere to be found in the 2012 descriptions of the fisheries. Burrator, along with Stithians and Wistlandpound are described as 'Rainbow' waters, whereas Kennick, Siblyback and Wimbleball are described as 'Rainbow Plus'.
As in previous years Burrator Day Permits are available from the Texaco petrol station just by the Yelverton roundabout, and from Snowbee at Drakes Court, Langage Business Park. The Texaco station is usually open until 8.00pm. Their telephone number is 01822 853339.
