Siblyback Lake

A Bodmin Moor reservoir at the edge of the moor, smaller and more sheltered than Colliford but with genuine upland character — clear granite-filtered water, a population of resident wild browns alongside the stocked rainbows, and a landscape that rewards the visit as much as the fishing. May and June bring a reliable beetle fall onto the surface; pre-book a Coulam boat by 3pm the day before to cover the drift lines the bank can't reach. Stocked and managed by South West Lakes Trust.
