Flyfishers' Club Details
PISCATOR NON SOLUM PISCATUR (It is not all of fishing to fish)The Flyfishers Club was founded in 1884. Its object was, and remains, "the social intercourse of gentlemen interested in the art of fly fishing."During the 125 and more years of its existence, the Flyfishers' has had a number of homes. It first moved into rooms of its own in the Arundel Hotel in 1888, then to No. 8 Haymarket in 1889 and thence, in 1907, to its own premises in Swallow Street, Piccadilly, where it remained until evicted by enemy action in 1941. Since then it has leased premises in several other London clubs, moving on when they proved less resilient than the Flyfishers'.Today, the Club's rooms in Brook Street in central London are extremely comfortable – think of them as your favourite ‘fishing-hut', discreet, cosy, understated … a haven to which fly fishers can retreat from the hustle and bustle of London.Here, we have one of the most remarkable fishing libraries anywhere, notable not so much for its sheer size – well over 3,000 works on angling, but because so many of the volumes it contains have been written by famous anglers who, being members of the Club, have given inscribed copies to the library. Although the Club owns no fishing and is ‘non-political', it and many of its members are closely associated with all the major national game angling bodies, and the Club's views on the development of game angling and conservation are widely respected.Please join the Flyfishers' Club Group for Members.
