Introduction
Historically this was the RICS Fly Fishing Club, which expanded to include non-RICS members a few years ago, changing its name to the Property Industry Flyfishers or Pifflers at the same time.
It is a not - for - profit organisation.
The aim is to provide members with discounted and regular fishing at cost. The club underwrites the cost of annual fly fishing and lets it out to members on a day-rod basis.
The membership subscriptions are fixed at the point of joining. RICS and RIBA members received heavily discounted membership and those in full time study may join free of charge. A joining fee has been introduced in 2022.
Bookings are taken early in the new year on a first come, first served basis to secure the fishing rights.
A small committee operates to run the Club:
- Paul Welling, Marsh Real Estate, Chairman & Lloyds Flyfishers liaison
- Sue Welling, Secretary/Treasurer
- Steve Spray, LaSalle Investment Management, Member Benefits
- Charles Dring, C H D Property, Events
- John Ball, Guy Carpenter, Events & Lloyds Flyfishers Liaison
- Andrew Maclaren, Canada Life, Overseas & Salmon
- James Finnis, JLL, Membership
- Rob Gibson, JLL, Fisheries
- Nick Marshall, Lawrence Stephens, Legal and Lawyers Flyfishers liaison
The club also has close ties to the Lawyers and Lloyds Fly Fishing Societies and often offers unused fishing from these organisations too - also at cost.
