  • sweethope

    seeing as i'm on holiday i can't seem to stop myself fishing, it's getting costly now it being trout fishing thought. anyhoo i tried sweethope
    loughs as it's one of the last places i'm to try around the north east. was told the small lake was pretty much the place to go if i were bank
    fishing by the guy there. i walked round to see it was pretty shallow and most spots weeded up pretty bad. fished every fly under the sun but was very hard going,
    2 lost fish one to a olive fritz and another on a buzzer. also lost about 3 flies to the weed. finally tempted one by popping a muddler past the face
    of a rising fish.


    think it's more of a boat fishing venue in the big lough so probably
    won't fish the small lake again; probably only about 4-5 fishable spots.
    think langley dam will be my new local from now on plenty of big fish
    and a decent venue for bank fishing.

      Nothing to stop you wading on the big lake. Ive only fished there once and also found the small lake to be to weedy. So went wading on the bigger lake and had a good session with over 10 fish.

        nice one, where abouts are good spots on the big lake for bank fishing? i really wanted to fish it but as far as i could see it's all tree lined and i didn't have any waders with me. cheers in advance.

        Also if anyone fancies a fly fishing trip to any of the venues some time it would be good to not have to go by myself for once (also for safety on a boat) i'm starting to talk to myself when i'm fishing, not good.

          Hi m8. Me and a couple of mates will be at sweet hope on Saturday, your more than welcome to join us. You will need waders though for the big lake. We plan on fishing from 10 and doing an 8 hour session.
