The club was formed in 1992 by a group of local fishers and Joe Spiteri was elected president with about 50 members.

The club was initially called the "Werribee South Boating and Amateur Fishing Club",

In 1991 we changed the name to Werribee South Fishing Club. We are an incorporated association.

We are a family oriented club dedicated to ethical recreational fishing in all forms, habitat and river conservation, improvement

of fishing stocks and the responsible training of junior fishers.

in the fishing club room adjacent to the tennis courts,Price Reserve, Werribee South.

Club Competitions. Members compete on a regular basis for open bay (all species)

and selected species -whiting, snapper, flathead, bream. 

We also fish freshwater and surf.  We encourage catch and release where possible.
