Draycote Fly-Fishers Association
Welcome to the DFFA website
Welcome to the Draycote Fly-Fishers Association website. We use this site to provide information about what events we run and how to get the best out of your fishing visits to Draycote Water.
Note that we don't actually run the fishery - most of us fish there on a regular basis.
We have built this website to show what we do and share our knowledge about how to make the most of a trout-fishing visit to Draycote Water. We encourage you to explore our website by using the tabs at the top of the page. Below we have contact details if you have any enquiries or wish to join us.
Our Next Events

Regular Club Meeting at Dunchurch Social Club
Fly Tying Demonstrations by Jim Sheehan & Paul Walley

Fishing intended reopening date April 1st 2025
Anglian Water contacted us on 28th November to confirm their intentions to take over the running of the fishery at Draycote, with a target date of 1st April 2025 for the opening. The legal process is not yet complete but there now appears to be significant movement towards this outcome. The intention is that Draycote will be part of the AW portfolio of large reservoirs under the same ticketing arrangements.
We have now opened a dialogue with Anglian Water and intend to have more detailed discussions with them in the near future. We will continue to update our website and social media whenever we have further accurate information
Club Caps now available
Club caps are now available to buy at our members meetings and matches. Member's price is £10 per cap. Non-member's can purchase one at £15.
