Avington Trout Fishery

About

Set in the heart of Hampshire, one of the oldest and finest still-water trout fisheries in the country, famous for its clear water stalking and large fish. Three crystal-clear lakes stocked with superb quality Rainbow and Brown Trout.  Plus, a carrier stretch of the world-renowned River Itchen stocked with grayling. Available for Day Tickets and Corporate/Group Bookings.

Stock fish are 4lbs-plus and fish of 10lbs and more are regularly caught with the current record for a rainbow being a staggering 28lbs and the record for a brown trout an equally impressive 22lbs.

Once you have caught your fish you can take advantage of the fishery’s own gutting room, which is kept spotlessly clean, where you can weigh and gut your catch. If you don’t know how, the staff at Avington will be happy to show you. Indeed, the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone at Avington is a delight to experience, with staff on hand to give advice and information on where is fishing well and what flies are working best.

For those who fancy trying their hand at fly fishing for the first time, tuition from qualified instructors is available – and you don’t even need your own tackle as tackle hire is available. Indeed, the tackle hire includes not only rod, reel, leader and flies but also a fishing waistcoat, and landing net.
