The Fishing Lodge at Hanningfield Reservoir Trout Fishery

Hanningfield Reservoir is now the UK's premier 'any method' trout fishery and its success has allowed for investment in facilities on site. We have a fleet of 35 boats, 10 of which were recently replaced with new Coulham fishing boats. The fishing season is open from March through to end November, and each year at least 40,000 trout will be stocked throughout the season.

Free fishing for those under 18 years old when with their parents or guardians is available together with a Loyalty scheme offering a free days fishing after 7 visits. Tuition courses for beginners are also run, lead by experts, with all the fishing tackle and a lunch supplied for £69 per person. Booking for these Saturday courses is essential and those taking part must be at least 8 years old. Call 01268 712180 to reserve a place.

The Reservoir also supports a lakeside 'Cafe on the Water' which is open 7 days a week through the year.
Please call 01268 712182 for opening times.
