Lilleshall and District Angling Society

Lilleshall and District Angling Society operates from Stirchley in Telford and is one of the long-standing Shropshire clubs serving the wider Telford and Wellington area. The society manages a portfolio of pool fishing in the area, and its membership has historically been a good complement to Telford Angling Association tickets for anglers wanting access to a variety of coarse waters across the Telford basin.

The Telford area benefits from a high concentration of council-owned and Severn Trent Water-owned pools, and Lilleshall and District is one of the clubs that helps members access these. Typical species include carp, bream, tench, roach, perch, and pike, with the variety of pools meaning members can find something to suit pleasure fishing, beginner days, or specimen sessions.

The society’s contact details are available through local tackle shops in Telford and Wellington. Like many smaller Shropshire clubs, Lilleshall and District is run by volunteers with a real focus on member care and accessible local fishing rather than large-scale match programmes.

For anyone in the Telford or Newport area looking for additional pool fishing options alongside or instead of TAA membership, Lilleshall and District is well worth considering.
