Errwood Fly Fishing Club (EFFC) is a members’ club founded in 1970, soon
after the River Goyt dam was constructed to provide drinking water for
Stockport. The reservoir occupies 85 acres in an area of outstanding
natural beauty in the Peak National Park between Buxton, Whaley Bridge
and Macclesfield.
Fishing rights to Errwood Reservoir include the three feeder streams that form the headwaters of the Goyt.
As of 2016 the Club also has access for members to Fernilee Reservoir.
There is ample parking and plenty of fishing just a few yards away. For
anglers who do not enjoy a long walk, the close proximity of a gently
sloping bank is much appreciated. Friendship and a chat about angling
supplement a fine fishing venue.
Errwood Fly Fishing Club currently maintains a waiting list for
membership. To join the waiting list please download, complete and post
this PDF file.
As with any club there are rules and regulations that we have to
adhere to for legal, insurance, environmental and administrative
reasons, but also rules we have put in place to maximise your day’s
enjoyment while offering a fair angling experience for both members and
visitors.
Before fishing, please familiarise yourself with the Club’s Rules and Constitution and also read the EFFC Code of Practice, in the PDFs provided below.
