Fishing Programme

The club organises fishing events throughout the season for all types of fly fishing - from friendly outings to informal competitions against other local clubs and groups - there is something here for all levels of ability and all tastes.

If you have any questions about the programme or would like to suggest a venue for next year then please contact Paul Davis our Competition Secretary.

NEWSFLASH

Brian Hendry our saltwater fly tying instructor has kindly agreed to organise a Saltwater fly fishing expedition to Shoreham. The date and time has yet to be decided because it will depend on many factors - not least the tide and the weather. It may be that this event is finalised at very short notice, therefore please contact the competition secretary to register your interest as numbers will be strictly limited and will be allocated on a first come-first served basis. Remember to regularly check back to this page because as soon as the event is finalised the information will be posted here.
