We regret that, due to the Government's announcement on Friday 20th March,
the Club is closed until further notice.
UPDATE
Beach and Boat Fishing is now allowed.
Please contact the boatman (see below) as normal for fishing or to access lockers.
The club is not yet open and we would ask that you respect social distancing in the boatyard and locker rooms.
We will continue to review the situation and post updates as necessary.

NEXT BEACH COMPS
Now that things are starting to improve regarding social distancing and things hopefully getting back to normal in the near future, we’ve looked at fishing 2 more matches before the final in November.
Due to our beaches getting very busy during the summer months the 2 dates chosen are
Saturday September 19th and Saturday October 3rd.
Both matches are open to any individuals wanting to fish but need to reserve a peg a bit closer to the time.
ASSO OPEN / INDIVIDUALS / TEAMS OF 5
As only 3 matches in total now the individuals league will now be best 2 results from 3 not 3 from 4 so expecting some close finishing there.
Teams of 5 remain the same all 3 to count and subs to be used if necessary.
DONT FORGET LUG ,FISH AND SQUID BAIT ONLY

The British Conger Club has recently laid down regulations regarding the weighing of Conger Eels caught at sea.
The Club has adopted this regulation and it will appear in the Club Rule Book under General Angling Bye Laws.
CONGER EELS CAUGHT AT SEA
For the purpose of weighing specimens Conger Eels only may be weighed at sea and then released.
A photo of the captor with the fish and a photo of the fish in a sling, on the scales, showing the weight must be shown to a club official upon coming ashore. They will then enter the fish in the specimen book.
For the purposes of competitions Congers should be brought ashore, alive if possible.
Should an angler wish to retain a conger for eating , they are free to do so.

The club has a keen beach and boat angling and social community. We can accommodate boats up to 23 feet in length in our secure compound provided they are fitted with beach keels, as boats are beach launched. We have workshops for boat maintenance and fitting of keels by yourself if required, and secure storage areas for outboard engines and fishing gear. The area around Hastings uniquely offers a very wide variety of fishing, see our club records and photo gallery. You will be in good company in this very friendly club. Our members come from all walks of life and can offer help and advice if required. Our membership fees are very reasonable.
