Kidderminster & District Angling Association

This popular annual event has been running since 2001 with over 60 competitors coming from all over the country (and beyond) each year to stay and fish in Bewdley.

Run over three days – Monday, Wednesday and Friday – the event allows competitors to enjoy the other two days by fishing elsewhere at one of a huge range of local river, pool and canal venues or visiting some of the area’s many attractions (inc the pubs!).

The Festival is decided on total weight and there are daily and overall prizes.
