Permits & pricing

Season permits ("Memberships") and day permits ("Activities") for fishing and bird watching can be purchased on our online booking portal.

Single rod and half-day boat permits can only be booked the day before fishing, subject to availability, and by calling the Lakeside Team at Woodford Lodge. Please call Woodford Lodge to enquire about any other fishing activities and permit types not available through our booking portal, including use of vouchers and boat discounts for season permit holders. A 50p admin fee is applied to prices as shown on our booking portal.

If you haven't used our portal before, you will be required to register when first clicking in. You will be asked to set a password the next time you login after registering. We look forward to seeing you safely on the lakes and enjoying a good season!

Holiday Package: Four or more boats in one week 10% discount on the fourth boat. 

*Barbless flies only. Catch and release permitted before second fish dispatched.

Season permit catch returns can be sent in via a catch return form.

Each season ticket holder is issued a number of season ticket catch returns. These must completed after every visit to our waters, even if you aren’t successful in catching a fish or two! Catch data provides important information for us here at BW Fisheries and helps us improve the fishing on offer to our visiting anglers.

Should a season ticket holder run out of return cards they are often available in the self-service kiosks found around our sites. They are also available during opening hours at our fisheries offices situated at Woodford and Blagdon lodges.

Alternatively, catch returns can be sent in electronically via email to woodford.lodge@bristolwater.co.uk
