The English Lake district is one of the most stunning places in England. And the fishing is good enough to match the scenery. Along with the various wild lakes which hold wild brown trout, there are also many stocked trout waters.
Windermere and district angling association
Wadaa have alot of the fishing in the Lake district.
James fishes for the england youth team and knows the Lake District very well, his site is well worth a visit for any anglers wanting to visit the Lakes.
'Esthwaite Water is the largest stocked lake in the North West of England, offering renowned top of the water action in true loch style, set amidst breathtaking scenery.'
I can strongly recommend this fishery, I fish it on a regular basis and I can honestly say that it has never let me down in the size and quality of the fish.
