Bank House
Fly Fishery
At 2½ acres Bank House is only a small water,
but it has been carefully planned and designed with
fly fishing and wildlife in mind. A total of twelve
small islands are scattered over the water giving
the fishery a network of slow swims and pools. The
water flows evenly around the lake before exiting
from one of three outlets. This means that there
are few if any ‘dead’ areas where the
water can warm in summer and become low in oxygen.
It also means that the trout movements around the
fishery
are widespread and determined only
by the availability of food. The islands and
the vegetation break the line of sight for the
angler,
so that even when the fishery is full with 16
fishermen it does not feel crowded and gives a
feeling of
privacy with plenty of space available for the
roving fishermen. |

Mere Beck
Fly Fishery
An 8-acre
Fly Fishing Water, set in 14 acres.We undertook
a unique land diversification project by moving
hundreds of thousands of tons of sand. The landscape
has bee transformed our into a large meandering
re-circulating river system dedicated to fly
fishing. As the system
has been purpose built,
the best features for fly fishing found in natural
rivers have been included. There are deep pools,
shallower back water, faster moving water, even
a section
of surface
walkway which allows you to fish free of bank
side obstructions. Many aspects of fly fishing
have
been created, from small stream fly fishing to
larger
casting pools.
