Priory Lake

Priory Park Lake is a well-established coarse and carp fishing water situated within the 45-acre grounds of Priory Park in Southend-on-Sea. This 1.5-acre lake is known for its accessibility and a healthy stock of Common and Mirror carp, with specimens frequently reaching the 30lb range.

Fishing is conducted on a membership or day-ticket basis—available bankside from roaming bailiffs—with prices ranging from £5.00 to £10.00 for up two rods.

Shoebury Park Lake

Located in Shoeburyness, a 1.5-acre water. Often considered a slightly quieter alternative to Priory Park, this lake is a favourite for local carp anglers and families alike, offering a relaxed environment.

The lake is well-stocked with carp, with specimens reaching 19lb. It also contains tench, roach, rudd & pike, making it an excellent spot for waggler or feeder fishing. Ensuring consistent action for most skill levels.
