The Broome Angling Society, based in Melton Mowbray, is known as Leicestershire's leading angling club. With over fourteen superb waters and membership of Leicester AMAL being included, the club offers a variety of fishing options to suit every angler. Membership starts at an affordable 35. 00 per year, making it accessible to all enthusiasts.
The club caters to a range of fishing interests, including pleasure fishing, specimen hunting, and match fishing. For matchmen, there are weekly matches held throughout the year at various venues. These matches can be as fun or as competitive as desired, with optional pools and trophies up for grabs.
The lakes maintained by the Broome Angling Society are teeming with a diverse range of fish, both large and small. Many members enjoy the challenge of catching specimen fish each season. The club even maintains a big fish list, with trophies awarded each season to the captor of the biggest fish in each species.
Regular competition results are published on the website, providing insight into which lakes are producing the best catches. All members, especially specimen hunters, are encouraged to keep the “Big Fish” list up to date by emailing catch details to the webmaster. Members are also invited to share any news-worthy items or photos with the club.
