Derwent Angling Association

 We have successfully joined Derwent Angling Association in a ticket exchange scheme, Established in 1865 they have 15 miles of fly fishing river with good stocks of Brown Trout and Grayling.  

  The river is located in the Derwent Valley which, in part, forms the border between the counties of Northumberland and Durham. The source of the river is in the hills above the Derwent Reservoir and from here it flows through the Derwent valley to join the river Tyne near the famous 'Metro Centre', a few miles upstream from the now world renowned quayside area of Newcastle. The main town nearest to the river is Consett, with a once world-wide reputation for it's steel making and more recently for it's Phileas Fogg snacks. The town of Consett is almost equi-distant from the historical and beautiful city of Durham.

Windermere, Ambleside & District Angling Association

We have now arranged a two ticket exchange with WADDA .

The Windermere, Ambleside & District Angling Association is one of the largest angling clubs in Cumbria, offering a huge range of waters and facilities, For the fly angler WADAA offers superb well stocked trout fisheries such as Ghyll Head, Dubbs and High Newton, sport fisheries like High Fairbanks Tarn and several hill tarns ranging in size from an acre to more than 30 acres which give a more natural style of angling for brown and rainbow trout. The Association spends in excess of £22,000 a year on rainbow and brown trout. Some waters are stocked with large tagged rainbow trout giving a permanent population of sport-only resident fish. Because of this our waters are challenging and cater for everyone from the novice angler to seasoned professional.. The Association is a sporting association and encourages catch and release on all its fisheries. The Club has several boats on some of the best natural trout waters in the Lake District which are free for members to use. In recent years WADAA has extended its relationship with several other clubs to offer exchange permits on a wide variety of waters including some excellent salmon, sea trout, brown trout and grayling rivers.
The Association does all it can to protect fishing throughout the area and has taken a special interest in trying to improve wild fish stocks in the Windermere catchment. The Association regularly finances local habitat improvement schemes and is working with other interested bodies to prevent any further decline in this once great river and lake system.
The Association also caters for coarse anglers controlling some of the best pike fishing in the whole of the UK. Members enjoy the use of club boats and fish in excess of 30lb have been caught from WADAA fisheries. Other waters include large tarns and estate lakes which hold carp in excess of twenty pounds, big tench, bream, roach, perch, chub, rudd and eels. The Club Match Record set at Ratherheath Tarn is in excess of seventy pounds.
