If you want to fish somewhere where the flies are “naturals”, the fish fight hard, and you get fishing as it should be, go here!

Went again on the saturday to no avail. conditions seemed perfect but no fish moving.

Going tonight hopefully as long as the water isnt too coloured!

Don’t know what to try tonight but i have got my lucky boxers on so that might help!

Unfortunately didnt even get a touch!

My mate got two rainbows, about 2, 1/2 lb each one was a really fiesty fish.

one on a green lure fritz and one on a pheasant tail nymph.

Conditions seemed perfect but mist dropped just as fish started to become more active and it was silent on the lake.

Really good piece of water though and I am looking forward to getting back there asap!

Tomorrow I am due to visit the dam for the first time, I drove past this morning and had a sneak peak and it looks brilliant.

I hope i manage to land something, I have stocked up on various flies and am planning to use a white whisker first followed by olive coloured flies and some hares ear, also might try the adams dry fly!

I will report back on friday!

Heres hoping!

I fish the Langley Dam regularly along with other venues and have been fortunate to catch fish at the dam on most visits.
In early May 2008 I caught a 7lb rainbow which
is my heaviest rainbow ever. But I know that thier are 9lb plus awaiting to be caught.
A great venue !!

If you’re looking for a combined day of relaxation and excitement in tranquil surroundings, then look no further!…Langley Dam is hosted by a husband and wife team who make every visitor very welcome with sound,accurate advice and a more importantly a welcoming smile!…Having fished Northumberland for a number of years I can sincerely recommend this fishery which is steeped in history and surrounded by some of the most picturesque scenerary that blesses Northumberland .

On Sunday 16th March 2008 my friend and I had a great 8 hour session at Langley Dam. The weather was cold and windy but we still had a great day catching a brace a piece and each loosing one on the Viva and Cats Whisker respectively.

What a nice venue!
