Hi I am recently retired and have returned to river and other fishing after a gap of 38 years. I would welcome joining a club so I can learn about where best to fish and baits and techniques to use. I would prefer to fish on week days if possible (Monday and Friday for early starts) Tuesday or Wednesday for later starts. Does such a club exist and can you help me?

Re: Are there any clubs I can join to fish BAA waters?
Steve, a bit late replying with my two-pennyworth but if you are a BAA member the world's your oyster for choice of water as you know. I joined a couple of local clubs, Wixford and Studley, [£12/£15 or so membership, pensioners rate, cheap as chips] both have stretches of the Arrow if that's near you, with good fish in there as well, but I still found myself doing BAA water nearly all the time so haven't renewed this year, even though the Arrow is on my doorstep.
As for bait and techniques I make no apologies for being old school and I would say fish how you used to, tweek it here and there with some of the new stuff about, some of it is useful, each to their own but you can't beat simple I think. I have yet to be convinced that half the tackle shop in your kit produces a markedly improved catch if at all. At the end of the day you only need three things, hungry fish in your swim, something they want to eat on your hook and a bit of common sense. Loads of stuff on YouTube. Roll on June 16th.

My previous post didn't really answer your question. I think what you were asking is 'are there any clubs affiliated to the BAA'...None as far as I know. Cheers.
