Little Easton Manor Fishery - Dunmow © Brian Anderson
With lakes, ponds and rivers and many tributaries, the odd reservoir with fish such as carp, perch and roach and an extensive coastline bordering the North Sea and Thames Estuary, you can see why Essex is the perfect county for relaxing and pleasurable fishing trips.

The Rivers Chelmer & Blackwater running through the town of Chelmsford are well known for their coarse Fishing. Species caught include roach, bream, tench, chub, perch, pike, dace, barbel and carp to over 30 lbs.

Crowsheath Angling and Breeding Farm Ltd, in Downham near Billericay, offer four superb and well maintained and stocked lakes. Depths range from 4ft to 9ft and with plenty of features, the main Specimen Lake has one island and stocks Carp up to 38lbs and Catfish to 74lbs plus.

If the challenge of the sea is more to your liking, you can find a wide range of charter boats offering angling trips from the many ports along the Essex coast, Bradwell, Canvey Island and Leigh on sea amongst them.

Professional skippers will take either individual fishermen, usually midweek, or groups of sea anglers on all day fishing trips to fish for Bass, Cod, Thornback ray, Tope and Smoothounds and many other species of fish found off the coast of Essex.

Back on dry land the coastline offers a variety of places to fish in the sea, from beaches to piers. The beaches facing into the North Sea produce a variety of species from Cod, Whiting, Dabs and Flounders in the Winter to Bass, eels and Flounders plus the odd Sting Ray and other species in the summer. Southend Pier can produce good catches of Flounders in the winter months along with a Whiting and occasional Dabs, while the summer will see Bass, Mackerel, Garfish and other species arrive. Walton on the Naze Pier offers similar fishing.

The Blackwater Estuary and River Crouch offer some good fishing from the shore at times with species ranging from Thornback Rays to Cod, Whiting, Flounder, Bass and Eels depending on the season.

The Thames from the shore can at times be productive with some marks producing a variety of species, Bass, Whiting Flounder, Eels, Mullet and Sole amongst them.
