Since we believe that sea fishing should be accessible to all, we are going to develop several resources under the banner of Access 2 Angling. This will feature information which may be of particular interest to wheelchair users and other disabled anglers.

We hope that you find this a useful sea fishing site and that it helps you to catch the fish of your dreams!
A section in memory of Charles Armstrong and dedicated to wheelchair users with tips, advice and techniques that may prove useful. We are keen to expand this section and always welcome such members into the club.
