Welcome To Southport & District Angling Association

Promoting the sport of angling on our waters for the benefit of our members

SOUTHPORT & DISTRICT ANGLING ASSOCIATION

The club was founded in 1906 and is now one of best established angling associations in the North West of England. The club offers an excellent choice of waters, covering Rivers, Canal and Stillwaters, that cater for specimen, pleasure, and match anglers alike. All ages are welcome from Juniors to OAPs and the club is constantly working to ensure ease of fishing accessibility across a range of our waters.

Members can fish a range of waters including sections of both the rivers Ribble and Darwen; the vast Anglezarke and Upper Rivington reservoirs; the full length of the Rufford canal; our traditional ‘home’ waters with around 11 miles of the Crossens drain system available. Plus, a range of top quality still waters.
