Trout

The two stunning lakes at East Tuddenham 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 lines with small imitative pattern, which will produce fish throughout the season. Pheasant tail and sedge patterns are all very effective. Lures also work well and there is ample scope for the dry fly enthusiast. The lakes are regularly stocked, normally every few weeks depending on the preceding week’s catch rates, with rainbows with a minimum weight of 1LB 4oz, with a sprinkling of larger fish to double figures plus a few browns from time to time.

Glenbeg fishing, near Oban, encompasses over 2,000 acres of beautiful Scottish hill and moor with 13 jewel-like lochs studded within. These pristine waters offer wild brown trout fly fishing of fine unspoilt quality. The brown trout are stunning, and many will never have seen an artificial fly in their life. They commonly range from a quarter pound to beauties over 3lb. Some of the lochs are easily accessible by car but others can only be explored by the adventurous, with isolated, undisturbed fishing often the reward for an hour walk or more. These are fly fishing lochs only, and when fished with tiny dry-flies or a team of traditional wets, roaming from one loch to another, the estate is a genuine joy to fish. All thirteen lochs are covered by the Glenbeg fishing permit sold here. [...]
