Grafham Water Predator Fishing
Fish for pike, perch and zander at one of the UK's best predator waters
What species inhabit Grafham?
With pike weighing up to forty pounds and a twenty pound zander and four pound perch not out of the question, predator fishing at Grafham is becoming recognised as some of the best in the country.
If there is anything you’re unsure about, please telephone or pop into the fishing lodge.
Do I need a permit for predator fishing?
You will. But when you buy our seasonal Predator Permit (£290 plus normal boat fee), you get 10% off at all Anglian Water tackle shops. This allows you to fish all four waters throughout the predator fly, lure and dead sea bait seasons.
A day permit comes in at just £23 (plus boat hire), though, so you can dip in and out with ease.
Day boats at Grafham Water are £27 (single manned £17); Half Day £21 (single manned £15); Winter boats available from 1 November £21 (£15).

Do different rules apply to predator fishing?
We do ask predator anglers to abide by certain rules, so we can protect stock levels and ensure the reservoir water quality is as high as possible.
