Key Facts to know.
Fish Tokens
We use a Fish Token system. You must be in possession of Fish Tokens to visit the lakes. Tokens can be purchased on-line and will given to you by the Bailiffs when you visit the lakes.
Day Members purchase 2,3 or 4 tokens while Season Members purchase in blocks of 10 at reduced prices.
Each fish caught uses a Fish Token. To keep the fish fresh and the lakes healthy we do not operate Catch and Release. If you catch a Fish it’s yours to enjoy.
Used Tokens must be left in the catch box at each lake as you depart.
Membership Cards
All members receive a Membership Card. These are bar coded and permit access to the relevant lakes. Membership cards are unique and not transferable.
The three membership levels are described in more detail below.
The Albury Lakes are spread along the Tillingbourne River from Shere to Chilworth. See Albury page for more details.
Syon Park Lake is in the grounds of Syon House in West London. See Syon page for more details.
We also provide comprehensive tuition and run regular events. One popular way to learn the art of Fly Fishing is to attend a Teach-In day. These group workshops give a new angler a chance to spend the day at lake and learn to cast a fly rod and take home a fly-caught fish. To learn more or book see Teach In page.
