our club
We are a small club with a membership of 12, all friendly and enthusiastic. New members are especially welcome. We are always looking out for new waters to fish at low cost. Some of our members are keen to go sea fishing, from boat or shore. Our fee is £15 for adults and £7 for children, which helps club funds with days out and other expenses.
club events
We meet in Zeal Monachorum Village Hall, at 7.30pm on the first thursday of every month. We have fishing trips for both fresh and sea water fishing. At this time of year we are visiting rivers and canals in pursuit of the elusive pike. Zeal Monachorum is 5 miles from Copplestone, 2nd turning left off the B3220 to Winkleigh.
fishing memorabilia
I collect and restore historic fishing memorabilia. If you have any unwanted such, please email or phone me.

Our newest member is Peter Tyjas who has a company that handles all kinds of fly fishing requirements, including teaching the art. We are fortunate that Peter is giving lessons on fly fishing. His course started on November 28th 2004. Peter is a wonderful teacher, which you will see if you go to the link on his name at the start of this paragraph.
selwyn johnson cup
In memory of Selwyn Johnson, a much valued resident of Zeal Monachorum, a countryside lover, a great sportsman and a true Englishman, we have established the Selwyn Johnson Memorial Cup. For details about this, or anything else, please email Ken - below - or telehone Ken Hogg or Jane on 0136382400.
spare gear
It would help our younger fishers if anyone has any fishing gear they no longer require and wish to donate.
our web site
I have linked to other fishing web sites. These are mostly in Devon. If you have a fishing site and would like it added, do contact me.
Open letter from Peter Tyjas.
