| Description | This water consist of two reservoirs lined with reeds and set just of the road as you enter Mersea Island. The Northern Reservoir is mainly a carp water with fish between 6lb to 20lb, there is also a small number of silver fish. The Southern Reservoir has only a few reasonable size carp, but the main stocking is made up of Bream, Tench, Roach and Rudd. The majority of the swims have platforms installed, so the use of a seatbox or rod pod is recommended.
The car park is just past the layby and is on the left hand side of the road, it is entered by using the locked gate. Please take care when exiting this site. If you park in the layby please be aware that when the causeway floods, so does the layby. |

| Toilets | The toilet is located in the car park and is regularly cleaned by a contracted company. |
