Fishing at Cleethorpes Boating Lake – North Lake

TripTock includes Cleethorpes Boating Lake – North Lake in the Tetney, Humberston & Cleethorpes fishing area as a public fishing water near Cleethorpes. We only publish access, prices, species or fishery rules as fixed facts when reliable current evidence supports them.

Current council-verified information

Permit, licence & access

Checked against current North East Lincolnshire Council information. Public access does not mean free fishing.

Fishing status

Public water · permit required

Ticket / permit

North East Lincolnshire Council says anglers must buy a fishing ticket and hold the appropriate rod licence before fishing at Cleethorpes Boating Lake.

Rod licence

A council fishing ticket does not replace the required Environment Agency rod licence.

Where to fish

The council's current Family Information Service states that the north lake is open for fishing; the south lake is used for seasonal boat hire.

Access

The Boating Lake is at Kings Road, Cleethorpes.

Parking

Council information says a public car park is steps away from the Boating Lake.

Accessibility evidence

Council information describes accessible, flat footpaths around the two main lakes. This does not by itself verify every fishing position as wheelchair accessible.

⚠️ Fish the designated north-lake fishing water, not the south lake used for boat hire, and carry the required ticket and rod licence.

Before you fish

Freshwater anglers must also make sure they hold any rod licence and permission required for the water.
