Burnham Sea Wall

Spot:Burnham Sea Wall

Access:Once in Burnham follow signs for the sea front. Best area to fish is from the jetty (opposite Somerfields) south to the Yatch club. Parking is on the roadside and is free from October to March. This is a very easy access mark and can be very popular on Autumn evening high tides when some reasonable bags of whiting can be taken along with the odd codling and conger eel. The ground here is mostly clean sand leading to some quite deep mud in the river channel. There are some rocky patches but if you arrive 2 hours or so before high tide you can easily see where the snags are and avoid them.

Tides:Best fished on spring tides for 1 � hours either side of high tide when you can fish from the wall itself. The mud in front of the wall can be very soft.

Species:Whiting, conger, flounder and odd codling. Bass can show in the summer
