However experienced or whatever your angling preference, Rocklands Mere Fishery caters for all your needs. Whether it be stalking brown trout in the margins with a dry fly on the trout lake, or awaiting your first Crucian Carp of the day next to the lilly pads on the old mere.

The trout lake is stocked regularly with extremely hard fighting rainbow and brown trout which, because of the catch and release policy, can reach double figures. The lake is renowned for its buzzer hatches, alder and sedge during the spring and summer months ensuring some fantastic surface fishing.

Default Latest News

The New Year will bring with it exciting times for Rocklands Mere Fishery as January will see the lake extension plans get under way.
Unfortunately this will mean the trout lake will be closed from mid January for approximately 6 weeks, but keep an eye on the website for more information and up to date timescales.

When re-opened, you can expect to enjoy over twice as much fishable water as well as improved facilities. Plans have also been submitted to extend the lodge to create a purpose built on site tackle shop and office to ensure on site help, advice and tuition every day.

This year’s Christmas Event will be bigger and better than ever before with a two day tackle event on the weekend of 4th & 5th December. Not only will there be exclusive event offers on everything from Vision breathable waders to RMF hand tied flies. We will also be offering free tuition, fly tying demonstrations and a try before you buy service on many rods and reels. Our usual complimentary refreshments will also be on offer in our cosy fishing lodge. So if you can’t stand trawling the high street for gifts or want to nudge someone in the right direction for a gift for you, join us for our tackle weekend.

Our new Online Tackle Shop RMF Tackle Shop - Online Fly Fishing Tackle Shop is now live and going from strength to strength. We now stock more products from famous brands than ever before, including a new range of fly tying products from Veniard and Whiting. If it’s to do with fly fishing, we’ll have it!

With so many plans in the pipeline, it pays to keep up to date so why not join our facebook group or add our website to your favourites and don’t miss out on great offers such as our winter sporting ticket.

The weekend of the 3rd & 4th of December sees the launch of the new tackle shop at Rocklands Mere Fishery. Join us to celebrate the re-opening of the lodge which, after months of hard work, is now fully completed and stocked full of premium brand fly fishing tackle. Our biggest and best range yet.

The weekend will not only include a preview of 2012 tackle but also discounted season tickets, fly tying demonstrations and an exclusive insight into the 2012 season at Rocklands Mere Fishery.

On top of all this the RMF catering department has been enrolled to knock up the usual festive treats throughout the weekend.

RMF is now one of the biggest fly fishing outlets in East Anglia, stocking more product lines and brands than ever before. We cater for all tastes, budgets and abilities and offer a unique try before you buy service, with expert advice always on hand. Not only do we have a full range for the fly fisherman or women, we also have a comprehensive fly tying section and are proud to add the Hunter Boots brand to our inventory.

As many of you will know, RMF has undergone a transformation within the last 12 months making 2012 a hotly anticipated season. Not only has the lake been significantly extended, RMF now has more to offer than ever before. The old lodge has now been converted into a dedicated area for visiting anglers to enjoy, whether it be a quick break at lunchtime or a warming cup of tea next to the woodburner after some winter fishing. Toilet facilities have been upgraded and a permanent on-site office is now in place, ensuring someone is always available to make your day at RMF a memorable one.

Although the trout lake is not yet open, the launch weekend will give anglers the opportunity to discuss the details of the forthcoming season, including stocking strategies and in house events. Anyone wishing to sign up for the 2012 season can do so, all season tickets purchased at the weekend will recieve a 10% loyalty discount.

Fished this water April 2nd.
My first time fishing the fly after a 15 year lay off from fishing.
What a way to start up again!
Beautiful surroundings on a beautiful sunny day.
James was a superb host full of sound advice offering free teas and coffees throughout the day. A well stocked shop and cosy sitting area are the icing on the cake.
The fish fight hard and are in superb condition with a good smattering of fiesty brownies for extra sport.
A £25 day ticket saw me catch my 4 fish bag at a steady rate throughout the day enjoying good sport on bloodworms and buzzers before moving on to catch and release. I couldn't resist switching to a lure for a bit more sport as time ticked by and saw me notch up my total to 11 for the day.
My friend managed a total of 17 trout including a couple of C and R Browns. He had a great time!
I dont know when I will be next in the area but can guarantee I will be booking myself a day ticket when there.
James is a true gent, honest and genuine.
Thanks for such a great introduction back into the sport!
