'Chew Magna Reservoir' is a small
reservoir on the western outskirts of the village of
Chew Magna,
Somerset, England. It lies just north of the B3130 Winford Road.
This reservoir was created in the 1930s, damming Winford brook, to supply water for villages in the
Chew Valley. It is owned and managed by
Bristol Water.
Chew Magna reservoir provides fly fishing for stocked
Brown Trout (''Salmo trutta'' morpha ''fario'') and
Rainbow Trout (''Oncorhynchus mykiss''). Rainbows can be fished all year. Parking is close to the lake and there are many stagings erected around the lake.
