The 28km stretch provides good populations of bream, chub and roach with seasonal runs of tench, making it ideal for float and feeder fishing. Access is generally available through local fishing clubs and day-ticket stretches, though permits and landowner permission should be confirmed before fishing.
Anglers should note the close season on Ash Brook: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Club membership or day ticket access is required in addition to your EA rod licence on most stretches.
