Fishing the waters of Castlehill Fishery, you can expect to catch a number
of species of fish. As the water is regularly stocked with Rainbow Trout,this
probably is the most sought after species in this water. Rainbow Trout size in
Castlehill varies from 1lb to 6lb.
There are Brown Trout in the water as well, these would vary in size but are usually around 1lb in weight. Perch are fairly well fished in this water too, the largest being caught around 3.5lb. Finally we also have Pike in this water, serious Pike fishermen fish here regularly and over the past two seasons two fine specimens have been caught, photographed and returned to the water. The two fish were 26.5lb and 30lb respectively. Quite a number of smaller Pike are regularly caught. Castlehill Fishery adopts a coarse fish policy that states all coarse fish should be returned to the water. Pike fishermen are required to have the appropriate unhooking and landing equipment. If these requirements are not met, you may be asked to leave the fishery. |
