This is a polite reminder to all anglers of the statutory requirement to submit a catch return for the 2024 Season by the end of November 2024.

  • Every angler is required to complete a catch return form even is you did not fish in 2024 and regardless of the number of fish caught, even if you caught no fish a completed catch return is required.

For Annual River Leven Permit Holders: NO Catch Return = NO £25 Voucher = Extra £25 to renew Annual River Leven permit in 2025

Using the details below we request that all anglers take advantage of submitting their return online before the end of November 2024.

Online submission is the simplest and best way to submit your Catch Return for both anglers and for the Association. 

Completion & submission of 2024 Catch Return Forms

In order to try to maintain an accurate categorisation of our system then we would remind all anglers of the statutory requirement for each angler to provide an accurate and timely completed catch return for the 2024 Season. We would encourage all anglers and members to take advantage of submitting their catch return online which is by far the easiest and quickest method to do this using the link below.

  • Please ensure that you complete your catch return online where at all possible (using the this link on the LLAIA website: https://catchreturn.lochlomondangling.com/#/
  • You will need your 2024 permit number to complete your catch return form (whether online or by post)
  • All catch returns must be submitted by the end of November 2024 at the latest

Alternatively, if you cannot for some reason complete and submit your return online, then please either post back your catch return form that you received in the post using the address below or  you can drop your completed catch return form in collection box at VOLDAC or O’Briens.

Failure to provide an accurate and timely catch return will undoubtedly impact the classification and gradings for our system going forwards with 100% C&R not being an unlikely result.

For associate members wishing to renew their River Leven Season permit for 2025 then:

  • There will be a £25 Catch Return Retainer fee initially added to the cost of the annual permit renewal.
  • This £25 charge will be waived for anglers renewing their annual permit provided that a competed, accurate catch return has been received on time.
  • All annual permit holders who submit an accurate, timely Catch Return for 2024 will receive a unique credit voucher for £25 which they should produce when renewing their annual permit at a retailer.
  • By presenting this voucher then anglers renewing their annual permit will receive a £25 discount towards their annual permit renewal cost.
  • Anglers who do not return an accurate, timely Catch Return will not receive this £25 voucher and therefore will not be entitled to the discounted cost of their permit renewal fee. 

In short: NO Catch Return = NO £25 Voucher = Extra £25 to renew annual River Leven permit

The intent here is to ensure that all anglers provide a completed catch return and in turn we reduce the effort and significant postal expense incurred in chasing missing catch returns by certain anglers.
