Poole Dolphins Sea Angling Club

Poole Dolphins Sea Angling Club Fishing competitions Poole Dolphins Sea Angling Club was established in 1952. Today all Club Competitions are points based or measure and release.

The membership was originally limited to 50 and all the fishing was confined to Poole Harbour. As the Club grew Shore , Charter Boat and Private Boat sections were created to cover all aspects of Sea Fishing. We regard ourselves as a friendly Club and welcome new members.
