Had not been here for a couple of years . What a difference ! The owners of this fishery deserve a massive pat on the back. Well stocked fly lakes, especially the big top lake. A new tackle shop and cafe with very competitive prices and a great choice of day tickets to suit everyone . Well done.
I paid : £8.00
Stayed : 4 hours
Caught : 3 rainbows and 1 blue.
Best fly: Silver blob
Tactics : Floating line , long leader and slow retrieve.

dirty lodge all other sites provide free tea and coffee and now no leway on time you are allowed to fish.this i could understand if you could not get a peg but through the week hardly anyone there. i dont know anywhere else to be so rigid
