Welcome to the Elwood Angling Club
We are a club for all!
The Elwood Angling Club is proudly an inclusive club that provides sustainable fishing education for its members & the wider community, whilst performing a custodian role for the environment of Port Phillip Bay and the broader fishing community of Victoria.
Club History
Established in 1901, the historic Elwood Angling Club moved from Prahran in 1939 and was rebuilt in 1957 after a fire. The club is focused on the sport of Angling, is proud of its history and its continued contribution to community groups and its members.
Facilities
Aside from being on the picturesque Elwood Foreshore, we are lucky enough to have some fantastic club facilities. The facilities comprises a main hall with sea views, a kitchen, a smaller room, male and female toilets. Below the main hall is a boathouse which stores boats where only members are permitted access. The club has table and chairs to seat approximately 90 people, as well as trestle tables which can be made available on request. The club has two fridges; a bar (supply own alcohol); commercial size ovens; microwave oven and a food preparation area.
The club has BYO license which limits the circumstances alcohol can be brought and consumed on the premises. People coming into the club are able to bring their own alcohol for their own consumption. Alcohol cannot be sold or supplied unless the hirer has obtained a relevant liquor license.
