The River Sence is a lowland river flowing through Leicestershire, England, draining into the River Anker, which subsequently joins the Tame and then the Trent. The river sits within the Trent Valley and Rises Natural Area, underlain by Triassic mudstone geology overlain by superficial alluvial and river terrace deposits including sand, gravel, clay, and silts — characteristics typical of a lowland English river system. The Sence offers a mix of coarse and game fishing opportunities, with the western branch in particular holding a notable variety of species. The river is lightly fished overall, giving anglers a relatively uncrowded experience compared to more heavily pressured Midlands fisheries.
