Hi all,

I have been fishing for several years but only socially and every now and then. Rcently i have introduced my son to freshwater fishing and he loves it! Now I have someone whom shares the passion fir the sport.

I do want to join an angling club as i think we can benefit from the knowldge and just in general socialize with people with a similar love for fishing.

I am in the Kempton Park area and woul like to ask whether you can recommend any clubs in the area?

Also, i heard that there are some strict rules that applies at these club competitions and would also like to learn more about the rules.

Any info would be appreciated.

After some research I join Alberton Angling Club last year April and have loved the vibe and the family orientated nature of the club. There are quiet a few kids and the club caters for this with a mini division for kids under 12. Every one helps out each other and there is a lot of knowledge share

We fish the 1st weekend of every month mostly on the Vaal dam. We had a comp this weekend at Aqua Via.

The Facebook page

Our next comp is at our club waters so if you would like to join us to see what it is all about let me know and i will send you all the info.

General Rules are
Only 2 Rods per angler
Fish from 7am Sat through to Sunday 12pm
Only casting is allowed so no bait boats.

Hi there!

Since you are besed in Kempton park AVION would be a great option! We have our club comps on the first weekend of every month. Our comps are all day comps with the exeption of the February and December club comps which is weekend comps.

We have different divisions within our club catering for penkoppe, juniors, seniors, masters and ladies. We are affiliated in the Mpumalanga province which means that we compete in the Mpumalanga leaugue. We are to the best of my knowledge the largest club affiliated in Mpumalanga.

We also have a number of provincial anglers, as well as some anglers that have obtained their SAVOF colours.

Feel free to check out our website at:

www.avionangling.co.za

For anymore info!

Hi Nick

We indeed made contact with Mark from your club and will be joining. He invited us to join you guys this weekend, but I cannot confirm at this stage as I might not be able to make it this weekend due to some work commitments.

If we cant make it this weekend we will definately see you guys the first weekend in April.
