River Wensum

[jasper65 6]

The River Wensum and River Tud and virtualy on my doorstep. anyone had any results fishing either of these rivers? the Tud is a small river which passes near by me which is handy.

 

also read that both Rivers are free to fish! does this mean no ticket and rod Licence? and is there a closed season?

Still need the license pal, everyone does no matter what?.........heavy money if they catch you without.

There isnt many free stretches of the Wensum. Where abouts are you? Your best bet is to get a copy of John Wilsons book,Where to fish in Norfolk and Suffolk. It gives good detail of all the fishable water of all rivers in Norfolk and a lot of the stillwaters too. The rivers still have an enforced closed season. Fishing from June 16th - March 15th inclusive. As for licence you need an EA licence to fish any fresh water in the UK.

cheers for the info guys . I'm based near Norwich and thinking of getting my lad out with me fishing. The Wensum is only a few miles away and the Tud virtualy on my doorstep.

 

Its been a few years now since I used to go fishing round Norfolk on the relief Channel and Middle level and a few pits near by. just seen some lakes in Norwich which looked good but was a bit shocked at some of the rule you have to abide by these days , Barbless Hooks only and Unhooking Mats must be used at all times, No home cooked Baits, no night fishing just for a few . things have changed a bit.

 

found this link which gives some idea of the small stretches that can be fished free and parking.
