Brown Trout – Policy Change
In order to improve stock turnover, and maintain optimum fishing conditions, we will now be allowing stocked brown trout to be kept as part of your bag. This policy will be in place with immediate effect and will be reviewed again in the Autumn. However, all wild brown trout (generally smaller […]
Top-up Stocking
Given the continued favourable weather conditions (cool and wet), and the steady number of visitors to the Fishery, we have just completed a top-up stocking of rainbows and browns. There are plenty of fish being caught, even on dry fly patterns despite the increased water flow. All in all, its a […]
Jobs for the Summer
There are always jobs to be done at the Fishery and Summer is no exception. Some of the most important jobs at this time of the year include:
Monitoring water temperature. Trout struggle when water temperatures reach 18 degs and the effects of reduced oxygen can be fatal at water temperatures over […]
Summer Stocking
In line with our policy of regular stocking, we have just completed another large stocking of circa 230 fish. On top of the existing baseline, there are plently of fish to be caught. Why don’t you visit us and take advantage of very favourable current conditions!
Re-wilding

With ‘No-Mow’ May now well behind us, we have started to selectively crop vegetation in the vicinity of the swims. Its […]

It’s Mayfly time!
We always have a great Mayfly hatch at Frensham and this year is no exception. Our re-wilding efforts over the past 12 months or so have definitely helped with this. The fish are reacting favourably…….

A fish fit for a King!
Entirely appropriately on this Coronation weekend, a fish fit for a King was caught and safely released earlier today by one of our regulars, Andy King. This 4lb plus brown was caught in Willow Pool with a size 16 olive klinkhammer. Very impressive!
