Grafham Water Trout Fishing

The trout fishing season at Grafham Water usually runs from the first Friday in March  to 31st January. We have healthy trout fish populations, with 65% of the trout weighing in at two pounds and some even tipping the scales at fifteen. So, why not try and catch the weigh-in of one of our national and international competitions at the fishing lodge? They’re normally at around 18:00.

Absolutely. There are beginners’ courses running all season long. Covering tackle, technique, safety and boat handling, our qualified instructors will soon have you up to speed. Click here to find out more.

Our tackle shop has everything you’ll need, even if you’re starting from scratch. The staff want you to be safe on the water, so, when you drop in, ask them about our Safe Start DVD. 

It’s full of really handy info but, if you don’t think you’ll have time when you visit, you can watch it below.

Each spring we publish Hooked!, an annual guide to everything you need to know about trout fishing. 

Email fishing@anglianwater.co.uk to request a copy or pick one up at any of our fishing lodges. 

That’s right. Whether you’re looking for a day ticket or a seasonal permit, the tackle shop is your first port of call. 

In the unlikely event that it’s closed, pop across to the anglers car park and a ranger will see to your needs. They tend to be in the workshop.
