Fly Fishing at Meon Springs

Fly fishing for beginners and expert anglers 

Meon Springs Fly Fishery is one of the most renowned stillwater trout fisheries in the South of England and an excellent place to learn and develop your fly fishing skills. 

 

The fishing lakes are stocked with top-quality rainbow trout (2lbs+) and larger trout for catch-and-take. For those seeking more of a challenge, you can fish our extensive catch-and-release section stocked with smaller rainbows and brownies, a true test of your angling skills.

​

At Meon Springs Fly Fishery, the team strives to make your fishing experience as convenient as possible. You can enjoy day fishing, club membership, experience days, and fly fishing lessons. There is a well-stocked tackle shop and Zed and Bolly's Café and Bistro on site.

​

​​​​​​For those who wish to extend their stay for the ultimate fishing break, you can book a Shepherd's Hut right by the lakes. Or, if you are bringing the family or a larger group, stay in our Yurt Village, further up the valley.​

“Just spent a week at the Fishery and was very impressed with both the quality of fish on offer and the customer service, impeccable. The crew there really made the effort to ensure we caught fish and had a good time with advice and tips freely forthcoming, from spots to tackle and everything in between!
