The Anglian EA region covers the flat fenlands and slower-moving rivers of eastern England. Drainage channels, the Norfolk Broads and rivers like the Great Ouse, Nene and Wensum offer superb coarse fishing — bream, tench, roach, perch and pike are the primary target species. Salmon and sea trout are present in a small number of East Anglian rivers.
A valid Environment Agency (EA) rod licence is required to fish all rivers, canals and most stillwaters in Rutland. Licences are available from gov.uk. Club membership or a day ticket is required on most waters in addition to the rod licence.
