LICENCES Every member of 13 years and over must carry an Environment Agency licence if they wish to fish.   The EA licence allows the use of two rods, although some club waters only allow one rod. No member may use more than two rods on any club water.
CLUB GATE ENTRY All gates have a combination lock, the numbers of which will appear on the reverse of the members’ photocards.
CLOSE SEASON Club waters are not accessible during our Close Season, which is 15th March to 15th June inclusive on rivers and the month of April on stillwaters. We do undertake working parties on our stillwaters during April. Adult members will be supervised during work in the morning, then be allowed a few hours fishing in the afternoon, at the discretion of that water's Fishery Officer.
NIGHT FISHING

New members from January 2025 will be allowed to night fish our waters at Southminster, Asheldham and Bicknacre as part of their basic membership. New members will only be permitted to enter and fish our two large carp waters during these times:

Barleylands: 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.   Laundry Lake: 6 a.m. to 9 p.m Night fishing permits for these two venues will become available to purchase when members renew in March 2026.
