Fancy a spot of fishing?
In a stunning north Northumberland location, Chatton Lakes has four fantastic fishing lakes, giving our guests easy access to top-quality trout fishing right here on site.
Established in 2007, the Chatton Lakes fishery is now owned and run by David and Gemma Woods who strive to provide the highest quality trout fly fishing in a relaxed, peaceful and friendly surrounding. There are three fly fishing lakes each around 3 acres in size – Chatton, Ross and Dunnydeer – as well as a bait lake – Reddis. The fishery is open daily throughout the year from 08.30 with seasonal closing times. All lakes are regularly stocked from local fish farms with hard-fighting rainbow, blue, and brown trout.
The fishery is popular among anglers from across the UK and also with many angling clubs who return year after year.
When you are here
Onsite at the fishery you will find everything you need for an enjoyable and relaxing day’s fishing at your fingertips.
The purpose-built lodge adjacent to Chatton Lake provides a great social hub for our visiting anglers. It incorporates a range of facilities including complimentary tea and coffee, accessible toilets, sale of flies and terminal tackle, and a seating area with a wood burning stove to keep you warm on those colder winter days. In front of the lodge is a large patio terrace with several picnic benches, some of which are covered to provide some respite from the summer sun (and rain!).
The lodge also offers a wide selection of snacks and cold drinks for sale. You are very welcome of course to bring your own food and join in the friendly conversation with other anglers and our staff.
What else you may want to know
There is no need to book fishing in advance. Just turn up on the day and pay by cash or card. No rod licence is required.
You can hire rods for both the fly lakes and the bait lake, but you must bring your own bait. Flies can be purchased in the lodge. Landing nets are provided.
Never fished before or perhaps need a bit of a refresher on the art of fly fishing? Stuart from Stuart Ingledew Fly Fishing regularly provides tuition here at Chatton Lakes – it is advisable to book with Stuart in advance of your stay.
Please note that all children at the fishery who are under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
