Now we like all forms of fly fishing at Adventure Fly Fishing UK but without a doubt as far as we are concerned targeting wild fish is where it is at.
And it is the same with trout, we love going in search of wild trout, for us in Devon that means heading for the moors.
The moorland streams of Dartmoor and Exmoor are amazing, they offer interesting fishing for wild brown trout in stunning scenery.
Trout on the Fly
Trout are without doubt the fish most frequently targeted by the fly fisher in this country. They can be found in all sorts of waterways and offer a huge variety of different sporting opportunities. At Adventure Fly Fishing UK we enjoy chasing trout wherever they can be found. There are a plethora of small stillwaters to be found in Devon. Often termed 'put and take fisheries' these lakes are stocked regularly, often with larger trout, and can offer excellent sport all through the year and can offer the ideal place to start to 'learn the trade'. Come and learn the skills to target these waters with Adventure Fly Fishing UK. We have access to a number of these fisheries in Devon and we can show you the latest flies and tactics to target these fish. These fish also offer good eating and we can even show you how to prepare your prized catch for the table and suggest some of our favourite recipes for when you get home.
Most of the reservoirs in the Southwest are stocked with trout. These offer a very different fishing experience to the small stillwaters. They can offer solitude, beauty and more challenging fishing but at the same time can be daunting for those not used to fishing them. At Adventure Fly Fishing UK we have a great deal of experience of fishing and guiding on these sorts of waters throughout the UK. We can show you how to identify the water most likely to hold fish and the techniques needed to get amongst them. From top of the water techniques, dry fly and emerger fishing to plumbing the depths in search of deep lying fish we can show you the techniques you need to be successful on these waters. For those that have never tried fishing these reservoirs from a boat we can show you how to handle a boat safely and how to use it to maximize your chances of sport.

The moorland streams of Dartmoor and Exmoor are amazing, they offer interesting fishing for wild brown trout in stunning scenery. Adventure Fly Fishing UK has access to miles of moorland streams and a guided day up here involves losing yourself in tranquility and heather. The fish here are not large, all will be safely released, but they are lightening quick and strikingly beautiful. Fishing on these streams can often be interrupted by the sight of local wildlife, wild ponies, deer, foxes, buzzards and sky larks have all been sighted by our clients. For the experienced flyfisher that wants to experience the best that the Southwest has to offer we cannot recommend this any more highly.
