This local fishing club, established in 1921, is known for providing excellent angling opportunities to its members. If you're an angler in Colchester and love fishing, this event is not to be missed.
CAPS offers memberships for the upcoming year, allowing both existing members to renew and new members to apply. Existing members can easily renew their membership online, starting from around February 12th. As for new members, they'll have to wait until April 1st to submit their applications. However, it's important to note that new memberships are highly sought after, and they tend to sell out within just a few hours.
The main objective of CAPS is to enhance the fishing experiences for its members. How do they do it? By continuously improving their existing fisheries and acquiring new waters for angling. CAPS takes care of 15 stillwaters, spanning over an impressive 80 acres. They also maintain over 12 miles of the Chelmer & Blackwater Canal and have a fantastic 5-mile stretch of the River Stour between Nayland and Langham. Additionally, they have a 1-mile section of the River Stour at Henny.
The waters managed by CAPS are home to a wide range of fish species, ensuring that every angler finds something to enjoy. Whether you're an avid carp angler aiming for a personal best or simply seeking a relaxing day out by the water, CAPS has a water that caters to your preferences. You'll find carp, tench, chub, pike, roach, bream, and more in these waters. It's worth mentioning that some of their stillwaters even allow for night fishing. Isn't that amazing?
