What´s the most sort after syndicate ticket in England, and most expensivest ?
What´s the major difference between a syndicate and a club water ? Is there any limit to the number of members ?

Welly must be up there for cost. Most of The Valley tickets are high up on a lot of people's lists. Savs is definitely one I'd love to fish. Even once before it gets completely ruined.

Clubs - generally take anyone. You pays ya money. You get a ticket. Normally large number of members and often multiple waters in the club book.
Syndicate - Invite only. limited numbers. Normally the ticket price is set to purely cover the running costs of the syndicate.
Angling Society - again invite only. Limited numbers but often have a legally structured committee, has to have an AGM and present accounts to its members. Usually maintains a bank account of funds.

There are very few genuine syndicates about. Plenty of limited membership waters around (usually referred to as syndicates). Some you have to be invited to join, some you can apply for membership.
I know there are clubs where you have to have an interview as well as clubs where you just pay your money and fish.
There are plenty of very, very sought after tickets that most will never even hear of.
Personally I'd love to get a Savay season ticket again above all others.

One of mine is a proper old school syndicate. Middle of no where. Only 30 members. Otter fenced. Hundred quid a year. Lovely.

It all depends what you're into. If you like to stack the odds heavily in your favour, you'll rattle off to places like Grenville where it's like shooting fish in a barrel, or if you're into catching a whopper where the odds are stacked heavily against you, you could rattle around somewhere like ferry lagoon and have to be reminded what a carp looks like as you're not likely to see one on the bank anytime soon. One loads a money, the other reasonable money. Both a syndicate of sorts and both sort after.to varying degrees.
Club water? For me, a felling like I've had a psychotic episode. Can be an amusing ride along the way with all the various characters playing their roles, all the same, nah, I'm out.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm sure the Cons is 80 nicker isn't it?

The Cons is a bit more than £80, but still very reasonably priced bearing in mind you have access to 3 lakes with quality fish in all 3. It's an added bonus that it's very. Hard to gain membership.

Is McTavish still fishing it? Not seen him in years.
Sounded like a madhouse from what I've heard of it. Could have got on years back but never followed it through.

Cons , Fisheries , Savay , Harrow all reasonably priced but virtually impossible to get into.
Still some lovely club waters around you just have to find them and not publicize your captures.

Hit the nail on the head mate
Lifeblood of angling club waters in my view, cheap angling the more you use and good for the waters looked after by the club. There's been some very forward thinking fisheries officers and club committees in the last 25 years regards carp. Previously it was difficult to get good stocking quality or policy.
Club angler's are now reaping the benefits and good luck to them.

They aren't actually hard to get into at all. Certainly not a closed shop by any means. What pickles peoples brains is the wait for your interview. Best thing to do is get your name on the list. Then forget about it. Go and fish somewhere else and when they come up you get to fish a little bit of carpy paradise.
