Dearnford Hall is a purpose built 15 acre lake it is stocked with Brown and Rainbow Trout, The manager Karl is a very helpful chap and is always willing to help and advise you on tactics and flies ( He also makes a smashing cup of tea ).The water is mostly a buzzer and nymph water but as Karl will tell you it is not a stew pond so the imitative approach is best. If you do find it tough going put a orange Fritz on an intermediate line, When the Hawthorn hatch is on the dry fly fishing can be frantic. A full days fishing for four fish is �20, other ticket's are available a full day's sport ticket is only �12.
