Our full season runs from the 1st April 2026 to the 31st March 2027 however membership normally opens mid march for new members to join for the new season and previous members to renew. You will be able to fish as soon as you have received either your welcome email showing your package and paid amount, or your club card through the post. This season all members will receive a handbook. This will arrive separately.

We have tried to hold prices as best we can but with all water bills going up we needed to add a slight increase. New members are subject to a £50 joining fee. If you were a member in the previous season 2025/26 you are exempt from this charge.

Please note – Juveniles 11 and under can no longer night fish with members. This is due to H&S. Junior Members 12 and above can night fish if accompanied by and Adult or Associate Member only.

PLEASE READ THE BELOW CARFULLY

Online Membership:

Online membership is the preferred joining method. Please ensure you create and account with your full name and email address. You will need to either take a photo or have one saved to the device you are using for your membership card. Payments are via debit or credit card. Online applications can take up to 2 weeks for the card to be returned, however you can fish immediately but you MUST have this email printed or a phone with it accessible to show a bailiff on the bank – Without either of these, you cannot fish until your card arrives. The email will be valid for 2 weeks from the date of purchase, after this you MUST have a card present (No Exceptions). Your card and book will arrive at different times. If you card has not arrived after 7 working days please contact the membership team. Please ensure you select the correct membership package. If you were a member last season, select RENEWAL, if you are new to the Club please select NEW MEMBER on the package. Your handbook will arrive via post separately after your membership is setup – you can still  view online and make yourself familiar with any rule changes.

The account you create on the new online portal is not the same as your Forum account. Please keep them separate. You can fish immediately but you MUST have the email confirmation with your details and membership number printed or a phone with it accessible to show a bailiff on the bank – Without either of these, you cannot fish until your card arrives.
