LEE ANGLERS' CONSORTIUM

Welcome to the LAC Web-Site
We are experiencing at lot of new enquiries relating
to the Lee Navigation.
It may help to emphasise that the LAC controls the fishing along the R Lee’s towpath
from Bow (Olympic site) to Cheshunt and then after about 7 miles (where the fishing
belongs to other managers), from Feildes Lock, Hoddesdon to the end of the navigation
in Hertford Town. That is, apart from the London Anglers’ Association stretch from
Rye House road bridge upstream to the October Hole (which is about half a mile).
It is not a lake but a canal along the southern end and a river at the northern end.
Being a linear fishery there is no fixed post code for the benefit of Sat Nav users.
Access can be found from the ‘River Guide’ pages but remember that there are only
few roads crossing the river along its length. If you rely on public transport there
are many local bus routes dropping one off near to the river and an overhead rail
line runs from London’s Liverpool Street station all the way to Hertford with many
stations in between.
Before you can fish you must be in possession of an Environment
Agency rod licence. These can be obtained from your local post office or on line
at the EA web-site. The link can be found on the ‘Links page under ‘Management.
Permission
to fish is given by the purchase of a day ticket or season ticket. Day tickets £3
(concessionary £1.50) are obtained on the day from our patrolling bailiffs. Season
tickets from the 1st April each year can be obtained through the post. Please go
to the Membership page. If you are a member of an associate club to the LAC then
season tickets can be bought from the club’s membership secretary at a discounted
price for seniors.
The LAC does not allow for any fish to be taken away from the river
and we urge all anglers to take every care of your catches welfare. Night fishing
is not allowed. You will probably encounter the non-native American signal crayfish.
The trapping and catching of these invasive crayfish is not allowed. However, if
you catch one by accident they must not be returned to the river and therefore should
be killed humanely and destroyed.
Please be considerate to all other users of the
river whether afloat or on the tow path.
Those anglers familiar with this site will
know that we have had a ‘guest book’ running for a number of years but unfortunately
very few messages and catch report have been made.
