Rules of Fishing [154.3 KB] [pdf]
Permit holders are allowed to fish day and night in two ponds on Ditchling Common. There is no closed season.
The Environment Agency kindly surveyed both ponds during 1999 and found both ponds to contain a good variety and range of ages of fish.
Some disturbance from other visitors especially around the main pond is inevitable during busy periods, such as summer weekends and school holidays. An easy access path is available allowing wheelchair access to fishing.
