This is the Teise Anglers and Conservation Society’s river water: more than seven miles of the River Teise in the Kent Weald, between Goudhurst, Marden and Collier Street. The club does not publish where its individual beats start and finish, so this listing covers the water as a whole.

The river has a native population of brown trout, regularly stocked triploid brown and rainbow trout of one to four pounds, and a breeding head of grayling. Members also mention dace and chub. The river is narrow and tree lined, so short casts usually do the job. Dry fly is the method members use most, and nymphs catch fish too. Wading is allowed, though waders are rarely needed because the river is shallow. Getting to the water often means a good walk and a careful climb down the bank, and the gates in the boundary fences are padlocked, with a new combination code for members each season.

About two thirds of the fishery is reserved for fly fishing only. The club says bait or spinning is allowed on certain designated beats.

It is members’ water. The trout season is 3 April to 31 October, and winter fishing is open to members who pay the winter add-on. Membership is limited, so members often have the whole river to themselves.

Stocking and fish species

none stocking · Regular stocking of triploid brown and rainbow trout of one to four pounds, per the club.
