WHO WE ARE
The Anglers Club of Philadelphia exists for its members.
Drawn from the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area, we are a community of fly fishers that values the sharing of knowledge about everything related to fly fishing and the great outdoors in a friendly, welcoming, and enjoyable environment.
WHY JOIN
Educational Streamside Events & Outings
We offer members a host of opportunities to enjoy Club excursions to area waters. For practical advice and hands-on experience, whether you’re a seasoned fly fisher or novice, there’s always something to learn, every outing.
Fascinating Lectures and Presentations
The Club boasts a distinctive speaker series, with experts of all stripes, both local PA guides and internationally recognized writers and speakers. Need to brush up on your casting? Need to learn how to tie that new killer fly? Want to find out about steelhead fishing in Erie, or wild brown fishing in Patagonia? We’ve got the speakers for you.
Delightful Meals and Other Social Events
Mingle with fellow fly fishers in the greater Philadelphia area. Come tell your fish stories over a cocktail. Get to know someone with a fishing expertise you’re trying to cultivate. Find a new fishing buddy.
Access to Private Waters
Each year, members of the ACP, who are also members of other prestigious fishing clubs in the region, graciously volunteer to host ACP members on these Private Waters. Many of these private fishing clubs cost thousands of dollars to join, but if you sign up for the ACP’s Private Waters Program, you get access to one of these blue ribbon beats every year.
