Mid Sussex Angling Club
Born from the proud heritage of two longstanding fishing clubs, Mid Sussex Angling is a newly
united community with a shared passion for the water. Our mission is simple: to make fishing
accessible to all, while safeguarding the future of our sport through responsible stewardship
of our waters. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting out, we invite you to cast
your line with us and be part of a club that values inclusivity, sustainability, and the joy
of angling.
Mid Sussex Angling Club has been formed by amalgamating 85 year old Copthorne and District
Angling Society (CDAS) and Haywards Heath & District Angling Society (HHDAS).
Club members receive access to a number of fishing lakes and stretches of River.
Mid Sussex Angling Club offer quiet and secluded angling on a range of picturesque venues
based in and around Copthorne and Mid-Sussex.
