Fish species

Anglers on the River Teise can target brown trout, grayling and rainbow trout. Brown trout dominate most beats here; grayling, sea trout, and salmon appear on certain rivers and seasons.

The River Teise is a tributary of the Medway in Kent. The source is in Dunorlan Park, Tunbridge Wells, and the river runs east past Bayham Abbey and Lamberhurst, where the Bewl joins it a couple of miles downstream. Near Marden it divides into two channels. The lesser channel goes to the River Beult at Hunton and the greater channel reaches the Medway at Twyford Bridge, above Yalding.

The catchment is mostly sandstone and clay, and surface run-off makes up much of the flow, so the river can be flashy. Water released from Bewl Water helps summer flows. A habitat advisory visit in 2003 found a channel straightened and dredged for farm drainage, with few gravel riffles.

The Teise Anglers and Conservation Society fishes the river for trout and grayling. The society describes native brown trout, a topped-up stock of triploid rainbow and brown trout, and a breeding stock of grayling put in by members about forty years ago. About two thirds of its water is fly only. Bream, perch, pike and chub also live in the river.

Fishing is held by the society, so check the details for the stretch you plan to fish.

FAQ

River Teise FAQs

Common questions about fishing the River Teise, from day tickets and seasons to what to expect on the bank.

01Can I fish the River Teise?
Much of the water is privately managed, but plenty of it is open to visiting anglers through day tickets, syndicate places, and club memberships. FishingBeats lists 1 beat on the River Teise, and each beat page shows who runs the water and how to book.
02How much does it cost to fish the River Teise?
Prices vary by beat, season, and how many rods share the water. Whatever you book, an Environment Agency rod licence is needed on top of the ticket.
03When is the fishing season on the River Teise?
The statutory trout season varies by region: on the Hampshire chalk streams such as the Test and Itchen it runs 3 April to 31 October, while rivers in the Thames catchment, including the Kennet, close on 30 September. Many fisheries set shorter dates of their own within that window, and grayling fishing carries on through the winter on many beats. Check the permit dates on each beat page before you book.
04What fish can I catch in the River Teise?
Beats on the River Teise list brown trout, grayling, rainbow trout. The mix varies from beat to beat, so check the species on the page for the water you want to fish.
05Do I need a licence to fish the River Teise?
Yes. Anyone aged 13 or over fishing for trout, salmon, or coarse fish in England needs a valid Environment Agency rod licence, bought online in daily, weekly, or annual form. It's separate from the beat ticket or syndicate fee, so factor it in before you go.
