Fishing in the River Blackwater

The River Bailiff can issue fishing licences for the River Blackwater.  These are generally for commercial purposes, a licence is not required for fishing within the Blackwater or Blackwater Estuary with a rod and line.

Fishing bait can be obtained from a number of outlets, however, baitdigging is not permitted within the River Blackwater and a byelaw exists which prevents the taking of fishing bait of any type from the sea shore.

Crabbing is permitted from all suitable Council premises throughout the District.  Members of the public are reminded that all children should be accompanied by an adult.  Please respect the environment by taking all your little home with you and put any crabs you catch back into the water gently.
