Focus on Sport Q Billericay & District Angling Club An insight into the Billericay and District Angling Club In 1954 a few angling buddies from the Billericay area got together as an informal group to fish a small lake formed from a worked-out brick pit. This pond was situated at the rear of Station Approach in Billericay, but was later back-filled to make way for what is now the Radford Way Industrial Estate. For a short time and with no water to call their own the group disbanded, but came together again in 1957 to form what is now known as the Billericay and District Angling Club. The Club grew as its popularity amongst local anglers increased. During the ‘swinging sixties’, monthly club meetings were held, with guest speakers, and coach outings to distant waters were enjoyed by an ever-growing band of local anglers. Later and with the help of a local bank manager, loans were arranged and the Club obtained a lease on a small farm pond in Stock which was to become a firm favourite with its members. This was followed shortly after with leases on small stretches of the rivers Chelmer and Blackwater, also in Essex. By the late sixties the Club status and membership had grown to the extent that it was able to purchase the freehold of land in Southminster which contained several water-filled gravel pits and this was to become a key decision in the history of the Club. With one freehold site to its credit, the Club went on over the following years to purchase and stock with new fish, two more fisheries, one in Braintree and one in Asheldham. All three sites are now fully enclosed and secure, with good car parking and permanent ladies and gents flush toilets and washing facilities. To-date the Club can boast 24 well maintained fisheries to its name and a membership of close on 5000 made up of not just individual male anglers, but ladies, children, family groups, OAPs and disabled Billericay Town Guide 43 anglers. BDAC is now the largest angling club in Essex and possibly also in South East England. So what is so good about being a member of BDAC you may ask Well, how else can you share ownership and enjoy the splendour and freedom of a whole variety of diverse landscapes in Essex. Where you can sit in solitude and peace, away from the toils and troubles of daily life. Where you can witness the natural environment in all its glory. Where you can sit undisturbed on a river bank and observe kingfishers, water voles and herons going about their business, or sit by a secluded still water and share the bankside with rabbits, badgers and the occasional deer. Local Essex anglers can enjoy all these pleasures by just paying a relatively small annual membership fee and joining the Billericay and District Angling Club. That’s why I enjoy membership with BDAC…. and the fishing is not bad too!
