| Description: West house boasts 4 lakes The lakes are stocked with Rainbow trout from 2 lbs upwards with the fishery record being 19lb. There are four lakes of 4 acres, 2 acres and 1.5 acres and 1 acre, each stocked with these high quality fish. Set in grassland the fishery offers easy access to over 95% of the available bank space without any major obstacles for casting. Access for disabled persons is available by prior arrangement. The lakes have been carefully planned and designed with fly fishing and wildlife in mind
Natural fly life is prolific with hatches of Pond Olives, Lake Olives, Mayfly, Great Red Sedge, smaller Sedges Buzzers and Damsel fly. Although lures are successful early and late in the season, artificial patterns representing the natural insects are the most predominant catchers of fish. Successful patterns are; Pheasant Tail Nymph, GRHE, Buzzer's (various colours), Damsel nymph and Daddies. Dawson's Olive, Montana and Cats Whisker, Fritz patterns are the most popular lures. Fox Lake is the newest and smallest of the lakes. This 1 acre lake is very natural with clear water. This lake is fishing by NYMPHS, BUZZERS, or DRIES ONLY. A great lake for the stalking angler, keep low and present your flies in the most natural fashion. Great sport in late April through to June on this lake as the seasonal hatches and falls of terrestrial take their turn. Surface sport to Black Gnat, Hawthorns and beetles can be particularly good on the right day. |
