starting a fishing club

[craig mason]

I am planning to start a fishing & aquarium club covering chesterfield and the surounding area if any one can give me some advice about stating a fishing club i would be very grateful

If you start a club that makes profit you'll have to pay TAXes, if you're going to have waters etc then you must get public liability insurances as well.

 

To be honest with you unless you've got a lot of potentiol members already i wouldn't bother because the costs & paper work alone are going to be a nightmare.

depends on how you do it our local social club has a very good fishing section with no waters.all they do is go to day tickrt waters together about once a month.that way no profit no tax and no paperwork.

once you had a certain number of regular people you could move on to renting a water but that would be in the future.

good luck we do need people to start clubs up enough seem to close.cheers big al

unless of course you combine the two ,just sit round your aquarium with realisticly scaled down fishing tackle and bait ,maybe a matchstick as rod etc whilst a friend sprays water in your face with a plant sprayer ,maybe another could use a hairdryer set on cold to simulate wind ,now and again emptying out half the water could simulate a drought whilst freezer blocks floating on the surface winter ,to spice things up a drop of cooking oil could simulate an oil spill ,looks good to me and clean harmless fun in the privacy of your home
