A friendly East Lancashire fishing club offering scenic waters, community spirit, and rewarding experiences for anglers of all ages and abilities.
We have a rod share arrangement with Bradford City AA and our Members also have access to a lovely 1½ mile stretch of the mid Ribble. This water is well stocked with brown trout and grayling and there is always the chance of a salmon!
Nestled near Pendle Hill, Churn Clough features crystal-clear water, rich hatches, and regular trout stocking. The peaceful setting is perfect for immersive fly fishing.
Located high on Reedshaw Moss, Laneshaw offers 16 acres of fly-only fishing. Well-stocked with rainbow, blue and brown trout, it’s a rewarding challenge for any angler.
Running through the heart of Colne, this river offers wild trout fishing. Part of the Wild Trout Trust’s ‘Trout in the Town’ project, it’s a true urban gem.
We love seeing the moments our members create on the water. If you’ve caught a beautiful trout, enjoyed a quiet morning by the reservoir, or simply snapped a stunning photo of our landscapes—share it with us!
Send your fishing photos to our team via email and you might see them featured on our website or Facebook page. It’s a great way to celebrate your catch and share the spirit of Colne Water Angling Club with the community.
