There is good brown trout fishing to be had on many of the North Devon rivers and although fish are not large, averaging three to the pound, fish of 10-12 oz are not uncommon with the occasional fish up to 1lb.
They are however wild fish and on light fly tackle give excellent sport on the dry fly, wet fly and nymph. In addition there are of course local stocked stillwater fisheries with both brown and rainbow trout so there is plenty of choice for the visiting angler.
