Hull & District Anglers’ Association

VISITOR PERMIT
We appreciate that some members wish to take visitors to our fisheries – these include wives, girlfriends, relatives and friends. However, it is happening much more regularly and we now have to manage it carefully. The Association has decided that from now on these visitors will require a Visitor’s Permit, as a requirement of our insurance. These will be issued annually and are free of charge. They will not be issued on behalf of junior members (under 18 years of age) but only on behalf of adult members. If you do not have one you may be told to leave the fishery by our bailiffs. They can be obtained by adult members only by contacting our fisheries officer, Derek Pye, on derek@hdaafishing.co.uk

OUR NEW VENUE – LAKEWOOD
The Association has purchased a long-established, well-stocked carp fishery in North Lincolnshire, near Westwoodside, called Lakewood. There is an existing syndicate in place which will continue – Lakewood Facebook Page. From now only Hull & DAA members will be accepted on the waiting list. The limit of 50 members has now been filled for this season using members’ names from the waiting list. Names can be added via our night permits page here.

H&DAA & HUMBER CAAG ANGLING eGUIDE
Hull & District Anglers’ Association Coaching and Development Team for over a decade have been spearheading angling coaching across Hull and East Yorkshire. Each summer our coaches introduce the sport of angling to over a thousand participants. Despite running three weekly sessions and numerous other events like the popular carp schools, the volunteer coaching team are very conscious that we simply do not have the capacity to provide coaching opportunities across the width and breadth of the county. Likewise, we are aware that for some newcomers the attraction is the solitude and escapism with a preference to try and figure out things for themselves. With the warmer months just around the corner our team of qualified coaches have produced this comprehensive Beginners eGuide to Angling to get the most from the sport.

NEW HEAD BAILIFFS
Andy Hall resigned as our Head Bailiff in December 2024. Unfortunately, his name and telephone number were already printed in our 2025 Information Book so he is still getting phone calls. The new Head Bailiffs are Ian Hartery (07825 301985) and Tom Mason (07507 142559).

HULL & DISTRICT ANGLERS’ ASSOCIATION

Established well over 100 years ago, in 1892, the Association is constituted in a way that ensures that it is run ‘by the members, for the members’. The officers and committee delegates do their best to operate the Association as a friendly, welcoming organisation. We encourage anyone, expert to novice, young or old, regardless of gender or race, to join us as long as they behave in a responsible way and abide by our reasonable fishery rules, which are there to protect the fish, the fisheries and the members. Families groups are very welcome. The day-to-day business is conducted by Officers appointed each year at the Annual General Meeting. To assist them in their decision making, they attend monthly committee meetings with Delegates who are also elected at the AGM to represent the membership. If you become a member please approach any officer, delegate or bailiff if you wish to raise an issue or require information or clarification. We have a very active Facebook page where to can usually get answers quickly to any questions and assistance.
