Fishing is from Sunrise to Sunset only – no night fishing.

This is also a day ticket water – Non members must purchase a day ticket before starting to fish. The nearest outlet for day tickets is Outney Meadow Caravan Park, NR35 1HG. Tel. 01986892338

Parking is at the public parking area for walkers at the golf course (the first patch you come to). Walk past Common Pond and across the fields to reach the eastern end.

A good rule of thumb here is the furthest walks across the common produce the biggest fish. In a pristine undisturbed setting make the walk down to the old Target and opposite woods it will be well worth while.

Big Chub hang under overhanging tree swims. Double figure Pike can also be caught.

Be prepared for hire canoe traffic on the river during summer months.
Cattle can also be an occasional problem being inquisitive and boisterous – keep well away.
