The better milder weather for the time of year has brought out anglers in better numbers and the fishing has been excellent again this week.
All 3 lochans fished well this week for fly and bait anglers. Many anglers bagged their fish limits, average weight of fish was 3lb with a few larger fish in the 4lb – 7lb range.
There is a very good head of trout in all 3 lochans at the moment. Best flies this week: Red Buzzer, Black/Red Buzzer, Bloodworm, Black / Green Fritz, Black Tadpole, Humungus, and Holographic Diawl Bachs fished on a long leader. Best Baits: Ledgered Worm, Maggots and Size 1 Mepps Spinners.
The fishery is open 8am-5pm, 7 days, thanks to the ICE PREVENTION WAVE MACHINES.
Largest fish of the week was a 10lb 8oz rainbow trout for D Neilson (Carronshore) in his bag of 4 trout for 18lb.
One Red £50 prize tag was caught by lucky angler W Kemp (Bathgate) from the bait pond.
