About the water

Brockhurst Moat in Gosport is listed among Portsmouth and District Angling Society’s waters. It is managed as a general mixed fishery, with a small head of large carp and a small head of tench, alongside bream, roach, rudd, perch and pike. There is no close season, although the society reserves the right to close the water for fishery management at any time of year. Fishing is permitted only from purpose-built swims, and the maximum stay is 24 hours. The areas marked A–B and C–D on the fishery plan are restricted to daytime fishing, with no night fishing permitted there; the page describes these areas as natural banks. Pike fishing is limited to 1 October through to 31 March. Pre-baiting is allowed up to a maximum of one kilo. Anglers may rake swims, provided removed weed is piled neatly out of the water and consideration is given to anyone already fishing nearby. Shelters must remain within the swim, leaving the path and the area above the swim clear. Digging and damage to vegetation are prohibited. Up to two dogs are allowed, but they must be controlled and kept on short leads. The society’s general water rules also apply.
