Brookhall Lake

Brookhall Lake is a heavily stocked four-acre fishing lake managed by Colchester Angling Preservation Society (CAPS), set in picturesque Essex countryside near the village of Tiptree.

The lake offers 50 pegs and holds a strong head of carp to 29lb, with many fish averaging between 6lb and 15lb. Bream run to 7lb, tench to 8lb, and roach and rudd are plentiful, with large perch also present.

The lake is reached via the B1023 from Tiptree towards Tolleshunt Knights; on approaching the village, bear left onto Brook Road and follow a track on the left down to the water.

Margin fishing is a popular summer method, while fishing at around 8m on the bottom tends to be more productive in cooler months. Pellets, paste, bread, sweetcorn, and meat are all effective baits.
