GOSJAC Angling Club

About GOSJAC AC

Gosjac Angling Club was founded in 1959 by the then Grants of St-James Angling Club. After several years this name became synonymous with angling in Stockport, but sadly in time the establishment where the club was founded closed down.

Members decided to keep the club running and abbreviated the name to GOSJAC and added Angling Club, and so here we are today GOSJAC ANGLING CLUB.
