Hey,
I wondered if anyone could offer any help and guidance.
Myself and a friend are about to take on a lake. We know what we are doing in running the lake, he is currently doing a fishery management course.
it's the more legal/financial/reporting side of it we are a bit stuck on.
It will be one lake but controlling on behalf of our local council.
We are going to be a non profit lake, and will be charging for day tickets and also a membership for those who don't want to always pay a day ticket if they plan on fishing often. Anything we make will 100% go back into the Lake in work on it and stocking. I am a qualified bookkeeper so am fine in keeping records etc. We do want to join the AT as well as it will cover us. However I feel before we join we need to be registered somewhere as a club?
However, I am lost on where we register and have to report too.
What do we have to register as? And through who?
And what do we need to report?
Any help is much appreciated.
