From the start of the 2016/17 season IFS and Forico have agreed to allow boats without motors on Talbots Lagoon. Talbots is an ideal water for low impact manually driven craft such as canoes, kayaks and sit on tops. These will need to be carried or trolleyed from the car park to the lagoon – around 250m.
Boats with motors, including electric motors, are prohibited.
Anglers must obey all MAST safety regulations and do be aware of the many snags and underwater hazards in the lagoon.
IFS and Forico are confident that being able to use a boat without a motor will increase angler access right across the water yet maintain the natural values of the lagoon.
