A large lake with many islands and peninsula's from which to fish.  The pits are worked out gravel pits, last used before the war, weed can be a problem and it is wise to go prepared to rake out the swim in summer.  Species to expect are tench, bream, perch, roach, pike and a few carp also present.
The river is slow and clear at this point, not to wide and reasonably deep. Principally a roach and dace water also found are perch, chub and tench.
ROUTE - From London take M11 to junction 8 then A120 to Braintree and the A131 through Braintree to Sudbury. Then B1064 towards Bury St Edmunds. At the far end of Long Melford main street turn left onto A1092 for two miles towards Cavendish. The entrance is on the left opposite Hobbs Lane.
CAR PARK -
Just inside the gate (Association key required) or cross the bridge turn right and on to fen car park.

No vehicles to drive down the
hard track after crossing
the bridge.
BOUNDARY - At this point the river forms the county boundary. On the Suffolk bank (nearest the A1092 road) the river fishery extends for 250 yards downstream from the bridge to a high barbed wire fence.  Also upstream for 20 yards to a little joining stream which runs along the back of the gate car park. On the Essex bank of the river, over the L.A.A. iron bridge, the fishery extends downstream to a dyke, forming the outlet from the lake to the river, and upstream to a point 20 yards past the electric power cables, approximately 100yds short of the old railway bridge.

Beware of these overhead cables
at the upstream end of the fishery.
No fishing under them.
The lake is at the end of the hard track. It is virtually divided into two halves by a string of interconnected islands running diagonally from the near left hand corner to the right hand corner. Access is not permitted via the railway embankment forming the far bank.
