You will join a group of like minded fishermen and fisherwoman, who come from all kinds of backgrounds and interests. You will have access to a wealth of knowledge, and learning materials from our Library, and you will enjoy guest speakers each month at our meetings.

There are tutorials on Fly Fishing techniques, and tutorials on fly tying so that you can tie some of your own sneaky weapons for our scaled friends.

Also you will come across second hand fishing gear from time to time, as other members upgrade or retire and pass on their gear to the club.

You will enjoy the comradery of all things fishy, and pick up valuable tips from some top notch fishermen and NZ Champions. Not only that, you will enjoy some discount from our sponsors if you present your AFAC card, when purchasing new gear.

But the greatest thing is of course is the actual fishing, and you can join club members on monthly trips to Rivers and lakes all over the North Island, for a very reasonable cost. Its a Hoot.!!

So what are you waiting for.??

5. How do I apply to join a Monthly Club fishing Trip.?

Firstly it pays to know what Club Trip you would like to join so that you know the date. See our current scheduled trip list -- HERE.

Once you have found one that you would like to join, simply email the captain at the following - captain@afac.org.nz

Each month we outline what trips are coming up on the website, and we also send out am email newsletter to all members. Its a first in, first served basis, and usually restricted to around 10-12 fishermen.

So you need to get in quick and target the trips you would like to be on. The Captain can give you more details. 

6. Do I need to bring Fishing Gear.?

Not to the meetings....no. We try to discourage our members from wearing waders to the meetings....it just looks weird.!!

So come along to the meetings and meet some of the club members, and if you are keen on a trip, and have never fished before, we will find some gear to get you through the weekend, so that you can purchase your own after you have been bitten by the fishing bug.
