About Claydon Brook

Claydon Brook is a productive coarse fishery offering a balanced mix of specimen and general fishing opportunities across its 15.9km length. The moderate water quality supports a healthy population of bream, chub, and roach, making it ideal for both float and feeder tactics. Access is generally good along much of the brook, though anglers should check local fishing club permits and riparian rights before fishing.

Anglers should note the close season on Claydon 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.
