Fishing

Why not book a cottage for a fishing break on the Norfolk Broads.

The Norfolk Broads are famous for all year round fishing opportunities and the rivers are particularly popular with pike, roach and bream fishermen. To fish on the Broads, you will need to purchase a rod fishing licence from the Environment Agency which is available from every post office in England & Wales. Alternatively via telesales 0870 1662 662, or online at www.environment-agency.gov.uk.

(Closed season 15th March -16th June)

Fishing on The Broads is for both the expert and beginner. There are Roach a-plenty to be had on Maggots and Worms. Large Bream are available on Sweet Corn and Bread. Decent Perch and Rudd can be found by the patient angler. If you like your fish big then the River Bure is justifiably famous for its specimen Pike using Dead Bait or Lure from the bank or dinghy. At dusk and into nightfall the Tench are feeding. Some real sport for the keen angler. During the closed season (15th March - 16th June) there are many private lakes around Wroxham which are open 12 months of the year, here you can find specimen Carp.

Wroxham Angling Bait & Tackle shop can be found on Station Road - Wroxham opposite the tourist information.
