Wallers Haven

Brief description of fishery:

The Dociety control a short stretch of Pevensey Marsh drain, a deep water drain with depths from 8ft to 15ft with little or no flow unless there has been considerable rain. Bream are the main quarry, with many fish over 4lb and plenty in the 1lb to 2lb range. Good Roach and Tench also show and very large Pike, Perch and Eels have also been caught. All methods catch fish, with long pole and feeder both producing large nets of Bream, with maggots, worm or bread used as hook baits whilst the addition of groundbait will improve catches. There is no need to use light tackle in this section of drain as the Bream send Roach are not shy and strong tackle will be needed to land the powerful Tench. The Society shares a short stretch of Pevensey Marsh drain with P.A.C.E.S.
