I would take this to mean that they don't want folk turning up and fishing lures and the like - think blob, cats whisker, normad etc.

Can't imagine that there would be a problem with the patterns / materials you list.

I suppose if it doesn't give a clear definition of 'chalkstream compliant' then the rules are open to interpretation

"Lure, what, god no, this is a damsel nymph!"

Good luck
