Rivers - 100 Foot Drain

100ft-sutton

The 100 Foot Drain at Sutton

Our section of the 100 Foot Drain runs from Earith to Wardy Hill: and it's tidal! So if you fancy something different in the middle of the Fens this man made river come drain, which is approximately fifteen miles long, is just the job. You may even get the odd Sea Trout or flat fish as a bonus.

With approximately two thirds of the water accessible immediately from the road side you are just as likely to catch greedy Skimmer Bream and Roach. Maggot and casters are best.

There is no need for fine tackle on this venue and if you enjoy stick float fishing then head for this fishery, but expect it to flow both ways!.

Watch out for the seals that often come inland to feed on the shoals of fish present in this bit of water.

Location

Our section runs from just above Earith Bridge to Oxlode near Manea.
