About Ennerdale Water

Ennerdale Water, in England, United Kingdom, is the kind of lake where a careful approach pays off. Shore anglers do well casting parallel to the bank along reed lines and overhanging trees, where ambush predators wait. Boat anglers can fan-cast points and submerged humps — anywhere the bottom changes depth quickly. Lure choice at Ennerdale Water usually mirrors the local forage: small baitfish imitations in spring, larger profiles through summer.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Common roach

    When fishing for roach, use light tackle and fine lines for better bite detection.

  • For Rainbow trout

    Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.

  • For European perch

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
