A Fly Fishing Club in Central London for those that love fly fishing, enjoy the outdoors but don't always have the opportunity to escape. WFFC.​

 

Start Fly Fishing

Ever picked up a rod or seen others doing it and fancied fly fishing? If you are a beginner, Andrew Hathaway will provide all teaching and guiding experiences so that you understand the water and the techniques that will allow you to catch on the reservoirs. However, if like me you found an old rod and reel in the shed or inherited one and fancy going out on your own, WFFC members will be on the water most days so please don't hesitate to ask for advice.

Fly Fishing Club Update

Apologies its been so quiet on here lately. Due to the current lockdown we have not been able to hold any events so the Final Fling competition and Annual AGM have been postponed to a later date. We will keep you informed as soon as we know more. The good news is that the reservoirs are still open to season ticket holders so you are able to continue fishing if you have purchased one (official Walthamstow season runs 1st Feb - 1st Feb). Season tickets for 2021 are available from the office and this year are priced at £400 for reservoirs 4 & 5 ( 75 fish limit) and £130 for the East Warwick (Catch & Release). Payments will only be accepted by card this year and you need to follow the social distancing protocols in place at the office.  Its also time to renew your WFFC membership for a very reasonable £12.50. Unfortunately you are unable to pay on the website at the moment so please bear with us while we sort this out, Instead, Please transfer direct and email our membership secretary Vince King. Details on link below:  Hopefully see you all soon. Tight lines, Matt.

If anyone has been out there and has any photos, reports to share please email wffccomms@gmail.com and I will post here. Thanks

Any budding journalists out there? 

Unfortunately due to work and family commitments we have struggled to produce  our popular newsletter over the past two seasons.  All of the content is on the website but we appreciate that people like these small magazines. We need someone that can collate all of the info from the website  and produce the newsletter twice a year. If there are any members out there that would like to take on this role please contact us at wffccomms@gmail.com.
