There is parking for about 5 cars in a compound close to the river, look for club sign on fence. when this area is full you may park oppisite & adjacent to
the green barn, but NOT in the residential area. When parking leave space for large agricultural vehicles & trailers to pass.

Members should use the registration slip in the handbook to record the species of fish and its weight.

River Adur
This is the view of our stretch of river upstream of Stretham Bridge. It is the lower end of the club waters on the river Adur. It is the most tidal section and contains most species of coarse fish. It is well known for big chub, carp and bream.
