River Colnebrook, Wraysbury, Surrey
The fishery can easily be accessed from either Junction 13 or 14 of the M25
and extends from the bridge over the western arm of the river on the Horton
Road, Horton along the west bank southwards to the automatic weir near
Wraysbury Station.
The fishery approximately three quarters of a mile in length and including two
flood relief channels (lagoons), is indicated by notice beards and entrance is
gained from either end, although parking at lhe southern end is restricted to
Wraysbury Station car park only. Members are advised that caution should be
exercised when using this car park as cars have been vandalised in the past.
Access is off the Horton Road almost immediately after the Horton Bridge over
the river (coming from the M25 direction). Turn left after the bridge and then
bear left to a five bar gate which has a CLPS padlock. Parking is then available
through practically the whole length of the fishery but cars must not be left on
the track itself. The gates should be kept looked at all times unless indicated
otherwise on a particular day. Members should be aware that the track may
become difficult after heavy rainfall.
NB Beware of overhead cables. Within a certain distance of these cables
members fish at their own risk. Members should also warn their guests about the
cables.
