About Frog Hall Lake
Frog Hall is the smallest of the lakes at South Elmham Lakes. It is round, with an island reached by a bridge, and the western side is sheltered by mature trees. The water runs from shallow to 14 feet, with deep gullies and underwater islands.
The fishery calls it a good starting point for a day, with good numbers of stock rainbows and several brown trout mixed in. There is often a surface rise to buzzers in the evening, and larger trout patrol the shallow margins in the early morning. On brighter days deep water is easy to reach from the island swims or beneath the shade of the far bank alders.
A total of 3 fish can be caught on this lake in a day, whether released or taken. Fishing is fly only with barbless hooks, and brown trout stay in the water.

Rules and policies
Fishing rules for Frog Hall Lake
Buy a permit online before you enter the fishery, or message the bailiff if you cannot. Fly fishing only: barbless hooks only, with barbs pinched flat. Fishing is from dawn to dusk and night fishing is not allowed. All brown trout and all rainbows over 3lb must be released. Fish that are released must be unhooked in the water, and brown trout must not be taken out of the water for unhooking or photographs. Frog Hall and Old Hall lakes each have a catch limit of 3 fish a day, whether taken or released, and fish count as landed when they touch the net, bank, forceps or hand. Exceeding a catch limit needs an additional permit. Use the nets and fish bags provided. Ideally no dogs; if you bring one it must be under constant close supervision and not disturb wildlife. Coarse fishing gear is not allowed.
