Blakewell Fisheries is a long-established trout fishery set in a picturesque North Devon valley near Muddiford, Barnstaple, fed by crystal-clear spring water rising on the western edge of Exmoor.

The site centres on a mature five-acre lake stocked with rainbow and brown trout from 2 lb upwards, offering year-round fly fishing with opportunities to cast to rising fish using dry flies and other patterns.

Beyond fishing, Blakewell operates a smokehouse producing smoked salmon and smoked trout, a licensed café, and a small shop. Accommodation is available on site in the form of a serviced campsite beside the water and two self-contained cabins.

Fly fishing tuition is offered for individuals and groups.
