Trout Fishing Norfolk

Exclusive Private Lake in the Heart of Norfolk

Day trips available - May to Sept 2012 | Up to 10 People Per Trip.

 

 

 Trout Fishing Norfolk
These lakes are set in the heart of the rolling Norfolk countryside, where you can relax and enjoy the peace and tranquility of this idyllic fishing location.

Blackdyke Fishery in Feltwell, Norfolk has just been opened to the public and comprises of a terrific 8 acre lake that has in fact been established for several years. The fishing is proving to be all you would want from a small stillwater; there are plenty of hard fighting fish, all in the peak of condition.

 

Where is it?   Situated on the edge of the Norfolk fens, the fishery sits within easy reach of Bury St Edmunds, with Newmarket to the south, Kings Lynn and Swaffam to the East, Wisbech, Ely and Cambridge to the west. Contact me for directions.

Getting there by air: Nearest Airports are London Stansted Airport or Norwich Airport

What fishing gear to bring:  Your normal fly fishing gear (9‘ or 9’6” rods and floating lines.)

Don't have any fly fishing gear? We can arrange fishing gear for hire at £10 per head (including: rod, reel & line, nylon, 1 pack of flies, scissors and priest.)

The Itinerary For The Day:  We start at 9.30am and you will be met at the local inn and taken down the winding country lanes to the lakeside log cabin with all facilities.

Coffee will be served, followed by a briefing by the lake and then a quick demonstration of the casts and tactics most likely to succeed on the day.

Those of the party who fish regularly go off to try their hand, while the less adventurous will have a chance to practice under the watchful eye of Tim, your Instructor.  He will take everybody to a suitable place to catch a fish.

The fish in these lakes are hard fighting Rainbow Trout and can be up to 3lbs in size; some even more than that.

A BBQ lunch will be served at 1pm followed by more fishing until 4.30 when tea will be served and the catch weighed in.

To make this a fun day out, there will be prizes for 'the best novice' and 'the best experienced fisherman', 'the biggest fish' and the 'smallest fish'.

After this you can carry on fishing 'til dusk or leave happy and contented.

How much does it cost? £75 per person based on up to 10 people attending. (including: refreshments, lunch, permits and tuition as required.) Reserve Your Place On This Trip>>

One day’s Fishing Licence available if needed - @ cost.

NB. This trip would make an excellent corporate fly fishing day.
