Twelve dams and weirs are monthly stocked with trout for superb fly fishing. Fly fishing tuition is available on request.
At Treeferns Trout Lodge we are proud of our trout management policy. Foremost we selected a professional and reliable supplier in Katrinasrust Trout Farm. Tim and Leslie-Anne Brewer and team render an excellent service not only in regard to the quality of fish, but also in the numbers and sizes that we order.
We stock on a monthly programme, which results in our dams rather over-stocked than under-stocked. It also means that the fish stay and grow. We have recorded sizes up to 3.6 kg, not to mention the “big ones” that got away.
Rainbow trout are mostly stocked, and brown and golden whenever available.
They not only allow catch and release, but we encourage it, “live and let live”, but according to the golden rules of releasing fish. However, fly fishers are becoming more and more convinced that catch and release makes fishing much more difficult, because some memory remains.
We also believe that Treeferns trout fishing is becoming increasingly challenging, and we have not been able to find another explanation for it.
