RIVER WITHAM , Short Ferry
we have a stretch of river from the Nature reserve for around 3/4 of a mile. This is wild fishing as the bank is not maintained due to distance and lack of interest from the membership. However there is good winter fishing to be had. Contact the Secretary for directions and information on this venue.
