Established in 1975, Tenterden Trout Waters was one of the first still water fisheries in South East England. The owners Barry and Audrey Evans still personally manage the fishery. The site enjoys an excellent reputation with discerning fly fisherman Worldwide.

We are situated in a picturesque and peaceful location in the Weald of Kent, just a few minutes from the thriving town of Tenterden. There is one main lake, extending to about 3.5 acres and two smaller lakes. The largest of the lakes lies at the bottom of a sweeping grassy slope; the pools are tiered so they drain into the main lake.

The two smaller lakes, despite their size, are surprisingly deep and well stocked with a good head of fish. All of the lakes have large retainer baskets placed around the banks in which anglers can put fish caught. They then select their limit at the end of the fishing session. There is agreed limit of 10 fish that can be caught. All other fish are then returned to the lake. Alternatively, anglers can return fish directly to the water. In this way a successful 'catch and release' system has been adopted and developed.

All the lakes are stocked with Rainbow and Brown trout, ranging in size from 1.5lbs to 12lbs. Numerous fish in the 3lb to 6lb class are caught every season.
