For the last 3 years we have been closing in July through to the beginning of September when the water temperature rises, we usually leave the stock in the lakes but this year we are running a "Any method weekend" at Ellerdine on July 1st & July 2nd 2017 to make room for some fresh stock at the beginning of September when we reopen.

Fishing has been spot on the last few weeks plenty of fish getting caught without it being to easy or to hard. Fish size has be quite unreal with so many BIG fish landed with cracking Rainbows Tigers and Browns all getting landed.   Spring has finally arrived to with lots of fly life now starting to show all over the lakes. Best flies this week have been Daddys Buzzers and Nymphs

Anglers are enjoying latching into our new stock of Tigers and Browns at the minute, over 200 Tigers have been stocked the last 3 weeks with nearly 50% over 8lb. A further 100 Browns have also been stocked which are mainly in excess of 7lbs, These fish are now starting to feed on naturals so should make some fantastic sport on buzzers and dries over the next few weeks. We still have a few more big browns tigers and of course rainbows still yet to go in, along with a sprinkling of smaller 2-3lb rainbows to compliment our already fantastic stock....

This last week we saw another big stocking of Browns Tigers and of course Rainbows. Many of the fish were all pushing the magical 10lb mark with plenty between 6 and 9lb. This week more smaller Tigers will be stocked averaging around the 3lb bracket and we will be introducing some fine Blue trout too.
