The fishery is situated in a beautiful Norfolk setting and welcomes experienced and inexperienced anglers and provides first class trout fishing. Newcomers are always welcome and assistance with the techniques of flyfishing is readily given.

The two lakes are spring fed and cover an area of approximately 6 acres. While the lakes are mostly of medium depth, there are areas of deep water at the dam end of the lower lake.

Regulars tend to favour floating line with small imitative pattern, which provide fish throughout the season. When there is a good hatch of buzzers, early in the season, "Black Pennell" and "Sedge" patterns are effective. Lures work very well and there is ample scope for the dry fly enthusiast.

The lakes are well stocked twice monthly with Rainbows with a minimum weight of 1lb 4oz. Brown and Blue trout are also stocked during the season. The record fish for the lakes are Rainbow 10lbs 8oz; Brown 10lbs and the largest 4 fish bag being 18lb 8oz. The fishery operates on a put and take basis, catch and release is not permitted under any circumstances.

Members are not restricted to a nominated day for their fishing.
