Stonton Brook is a modest lowland stream offering mixed coarse and game fishing across its 18.9km length. The brook holds a reasonable variety of species including chub, roach, dace and pike, though current water quality issues mean catches may be inconsistent and fish condition variable. Access is generally available but anglers should check for local fishing rights and permits before visiting, as sections may be privately owned or subject to Environment Agency restrictions.
Anglers should note the close season on Stonton 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.
