Lullingstone Castle Lake
The Lake is about 14 acres and is the habitat of many species of fly-life, such as Damsels, Pond Olives, Sedge, buzzer & Mayfly. Although it is possible to fish from the bank most of the fishing is from boat of which the Society has a number for use by the members. The lake is stocked on a regular basis with Rainbow trout of around one & a quarter pounds but with occasional larger fish. The Society operates a limited catch and release policy and as such there is a limit on the number of fish that can be caught and taken but there is no limit on the number of days members may fish.
The River Darent
The River is stocked with brown trout and a full catch and release policy is the rule on the river.
A place to get away from it all and enjoy the tranquility of fishing this beutiful river.
