TROUT ANGLERS CLUB MEMBERSHIP FOR 2011
As we approach the start of another new season anglers will be digging out their tackle in anticipation of the new challenges ahead.
Dates will be getting churned out on the calendar for club outings and the beginning of a new competitive season. Whether it is at national or international level the majority of anglers all belong to an angling club.
Out on the angling circuit I am constantly being asked where and how to join a fishing club. There are several recognised clubs in and around the Edinburgh area, all with their
own merits. One such club is the Edinburgh Trout Anglers who have over 100 years of angling history.
The club is well-established with fine premises based in central Edinburgh and is currently on the lookout for new members to join its ranks.
No matter the angling ability of each individual the club makes everyone welcome and has outings to both river and stillwater.
Over the new year wallpaper club has been graced with several anglers who have gone on to achieve international honours on both the rivers and lochs and any new members will only learn from their experience.
Apart from social outings the club meets annually for dinner and the presentation of Silverware and prizes.
Contact in the first instance can be made through the secretary at 29 Dundas Street in Edinburgh, or telephone 0131-556 6656 – or contact Alan Gra y on 0131-334 1255.
The Club currently has an admission fee of £75.00 and an annual subscription
of £95.00 for Members resident within the limits of the City of Edinburgh
boundary. A reduced annual subscription (equivalent to one half of the full
annual subscription) is payable by Country Members. The annual subscription
for those Members joining between 1st April and 30th September is reduced
by one half of the full annual subscription
In common with most clubs and associations, ladies and gentlemen are
proposed and seconded for membership by present members of the Club.
When this is not possible; those considering membership are invited to meet
us, at which time membership may be discussed. Any queries concerning
membership of the Club should be addressed to the Honorary Secretary (E-mail Address) alan.gray44@btinternet.com
