How to fish here
We haven't found verified local tips for this water yet, so what's below is general practical advice for the fish listed — not reports from here.
Target species
Rigs & methods
- General technique — not verified here
A neat lead-clip rig over a light scattering of bait
When you don't know the lake well yet, the simplest approach is the best start: a reliable bottom bait rig on a clean spot, with just enough bait to get a bite without filling them up.
How to set it up
- Feel the lead down to find a firm spot, then clip up so you hit it every cast.
- Fish a single boilie or wafter with 20–30 freebies around it.
- Leave one rod roving and recast it to showing fish.
Typical kit: Boilies: 15mm boilies · Hook: wide gape size 6–8 · Hooklink: coated braid or fluoro · Main line: 15lb mono. Starting points only — match line and hook to the venue rules and the fish present.
Bait to consider
- Boilies or wafters
- Pellet
- Sweetcorn or tiger nuts (only where nuts are allowed)
- Bread on the surface in warm weather
Common starting baits, not a local "top bait". Bait bans override everything here.
When it suits
Usually most active late spring to autumn; slower in deep winter. Warm, settled spells often see fish higher in the water.
General seasonal pattern, not a forecast.
Check the rules
No method or bait rules published that we've checked. Always confirm on the day.
Rigs & methods
- General technique — not verified here
Fly fishing for the trout
Stocked lake trout cruise and feed up in the water, so you need to find the depth they're at. Start just under the surface and go deeper if nothing's happening.
How to set it up
- A 9ft 6–7 weight rod with a floating line covers most days; carry an intermediate or sinking line for cold or bright spells.
- Early season and cold days: lures like a Cat's Whisker, Blob or Damsel, pulled back in steady strips.
- Warmer days with fish rising: buzzers, Diawl Bachs or a dry fly fished slowly, or static under an indicator.
- Count your fly down (5, 10, 15 seconds) and change depth till you get a pull — then repeat that count.
- Use 6–8lb fluorocarbon tippet, and check the fishery's rules on catch-and-release, bag limits and barbless hooks before you start.
Typical kit: Rod: 9ft #6–7 fly rod · Line: floating + intermediate fly lines · Tippet: 6–8lb fluorocarbon. Starting points only — match line and hook to the venue rules and the fish present.
Rule note: Bag limits and catch-and-release rules vary a lot on trout waters — ask at the lodge before your first cast.
Bait to consider
- Flies only on most trout waters — check the lodge rules
- Bait/worm ONLY where expressly permitted
Common starting baits, not a local "top bait". Bait bans override everything here.
