MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS

Barbel Fisher magazine is published twice a year and members receive their copy free of charge. They are full of informative articles written by the members. Since the very first issues edited by Laurence Breakspear, the magazine has evolved to become one of today's "must read" publications. It has gone from strength to strength thanks to contributors and advertisers, but without doubt mostly due to the fine work of the late Gordon Scott, whose vision and dedication has left a solid foundation on which we can all build.

Newsletters are sent to members three or four times a year to keep them informed of all Society activity.
News from the regions, fisheries, conference etc. and updates on all the major issues the Society is involved with make for an interesting read.

The conference held every year during the close season is now firmly established in the angling calendar. All the biggest names have given talks, but it is the spirit and camaraderie that brings the members back year after year.

We are committed to helping youngsters fish on the rivers. We arrange two or three fish-ins a year where the juniors receive tuition from the top flight anglers they only read about in the magazines. We also help out with supervision for other clubs and organisations when they hold their own junior days.

The biggest benefit of all though, is that you are now part of a strong national organisation full of like minded people who are dedicated to the continued well being of our friend the barbel and its habitat.
