The River Kensey is a small river in north east Cornwall. It rises at Kensey, in the parish of Treneglos, and flows generally east, south of Tresmeer and Egloskerry. It runs between Launceston and its suburb Newport, and joins the River Tamar about a mile east of Launceston.
The Westcountry Angling Passport has a beat at Polson, on the edge of Launceston, which it describes as a small, lightly fished river that gives trout and grayling, with the occasional sea trout. A short, light rod is advised because casting space is limited.
