River Blackwater in Norfolk

[enfield250]

Hello,

Has anyone fished the River Blackwater in Norflolk, it's a tributary of the Wensum. I can't find anything about it on the web. I just wondered what it was like, I might be going there next summer.

Cheers,

Yup !

 

Years ago I fished Tannery Lake at Wortham (?), (maybe Worthing?) Norfolk, and bagged up on pound-plus roach. It`s about 3/4 acre max, and the Blackwater runs alongside.

 

Half-a-dozen casts into the tiny Blackwater weirpool yielded two rainbows over 3lb on lobworm. The first of which convinced me I was into my PB chub - until the air display started

 

Try John Wilson`s "Where to fish in Norfolk and Suffolk", as no doubt many of these places will have changed hands, with fishing no longer available (Lenwade Mill )

Thanks TeeBee,

Seems no one else has fished it though. I've only got an old copy of John Wilson's book, and it doesn't mention it either, so I'll just keep looking.
