DESCRIPTION: Home of the fighting trout - now under new management. One and a half acre trout lake and three quarters of an acre coarse lake.

The coarse lake is stocked, but we don't know what with! please come and find out for us.

TACTICS: Both wet and dry flies produce good results depending on the time of year, olives, buzzers, longlegs, sedges and damsels hatch throughout the season. The best results are generally obtained with the more traditional imitative dressings. The best results for coarse fishing are obtained with sweetcorn and luncheon meat.
