Fishing

Part of what makes Exmoor such a stunning place is the presence of water throughout the region. Spectacular valleys are often brought together by beautiful rivers, the Coastline is constantly chewed by never ending waves while here and there a Lake puts in an appearance, a natural mirror quietly hiding amongst sprawling meadows.

For the Exmoor fly fisher it is what lives within these watery realms that provides the real interest. This short article is a guide to what you will need to tackle fly fishing on Exmoor

There are many to choose from including the Exe, Barle and Lyn. Day tickets are freely available from various outlets including hotels, local farmers, tourist offices and specialist fishing agents. For a complete guide to the South West region and the venues, which it offers, I can recommend the "Get Hooked" Guide. This little booklet represents excellent value and is available in most tackle shops and some newsagents throughout the area.

Freshwater Species: Salmon, Sea Trout and Wild Brown Trout. There are also possibilities to catch Pike on the fly.
