Fishing in Wroxham advice please

[hermes]

We are off to Norfolk in February staying in a place right on the river that allows fishing.

Last time we went most anglers were after the Pike but I'm not that bothered although I keep promising my son we will catch a Pike one day, maybe this is my best chance!

I haven't fished Norfolk since I was a boy and was after some help, maybe someone here has stayed in the same place, or some tips on whats in the river, depth,methods and species etc?

 

This where we are staying:

Pike and roach. Pop into Wroxham Angling Centre, friendly crowd.

[hermes]

what a pair, like chalk and cheese, thanks I will drop in there but wanted to know what kit to take with me really.

[Peter Waller]

Feeder gear for bream, waggler gear for roach, lure gear for pike.

Throw a couple of dead baits out by the railway bridge stantions and you will catch .... herring always works for me (Fish been out up to 29lb their this year). Also the connoseur boatyard is always good for a few takes.If you go in the shop tell Martin, Jacko from Cobbleacre sent you for advice and he will look after you.

Hi Hermes,

The main river which runs in front of the complex you are staying in responds well to stick float held back slightly or pole tactics feeding hemp and maggot. The cut that runs into the boatyard produced my p/b pike to floatfished smelt at the same time of year from the cottages opposite and produced a few runs most days, Also a few large perch at dusk.

Have fun (in Horning Myself next week)

Fantastic help mates, thanks and I will drop your names in when I'm in Wroxham Angling Centre.

Good luck next week KAYC.

its a nice place to stay as well.

[Peter Waller]

Its actually a very nice place! Try laying on at this time of year, it can sort out the bigger fish.

I'm really looking forward to this trip,sounds like everything I could want from a good river venue, even a chance for my son to meet Mr Esox Lucius!
