The first and last hours carry the summer; the middle is slow. The hot months push the fishing to dawn and dusk. Upper Aubrey Lake runs to that rhythm year in and year out.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Aubrey Lake sits 2.1 miles off and takes the overflow. Confirm before you fish Upper Aubrey Lake.
