Pitsford Water is an artificial reservoir in Northamptonshire, England, which serves as a water reservoir and is also a popular sport fishing spot. Fly fishing is very popular on this reservoir, mainly due to the good rainbow trout fishing, but pike and brown trout can also be caught.
The best times for fly fishing on Pitsford Water are spring and autumn when the water temperature is ideal for fish activity. It is recommended to use fly rods 9 to 10 feet in length with an AFTMA between 6 -8.
Fly fishing boat rentals are available at Pitsford Water Reservoir, allowing anglers to reach locations that are otherwise inaccessible from shore. Permits can be purchased directly from the fishing lodge with basic facilities and a shop where you can restock your still water flies and other fly fishing equipment.
