Sorry we've been a bit quiet for the past week, Mark was a bit pre-occupied playing this lump of a Salmon in Scotland... Normal service will resume shortly... #flyfishing

A good time to come and see the lake contours and features before it fills again, some obvious reasons why certain areas fish well. Fish seem to be throughout the water column now, with the cooler water conditions. #flyfishing #wimbleball #exmoor

Final call for this coming Sunday... Trevor Telling Memorial Fishing Competition Sunday the 7th September 2025... 2 Fishing competitions in 1, from the boat and the bank, trophy & prizes for each. Normal price for fishing plus £5 donation to charity. #flyfishing #wimbleball

Definitely worth a signature in my opinion... 👍

Steve Lawes had a good couple of sessions from Bank & Boat on the 6th & 7th June, he had 16 fish to the net, the best estimated to be c.12lbs. Steve said most came to an orange FAB fished on a midge-tip line, in and around Ruggs Bay. #flyfishing #wimbleball #exmoor

Another 25 Lunkers have gone in this week, the biggest we estimate at close to 15lbs, so probably our biggest lean fighting machine yet! So if you catch one of these beauties, please send us a picture! #flyfishing #wimbleball #exmoor #rainbowtrout
