All 3 lochans are fishing well, particularly the middle fly pond.   Again many fish were caught this week using both fly and bait.  The average fish weight was 3lb 2oz and many fish in the 4-5lb category were caught over the week.

Ace of Spades, Sparklers, Snatchers, Damsels and Fritz’s worked well for fly fishers fished at about 6ft under the surface.  For bait anglers Tobys, Taz’s, Worm Powerbait and Maggots were most successful.

Two specimen trout were caught this week – a cracking rainbow of 12lb from the top fly pond for Mr Henderson (Falkirk) in his 5 for 25lb using goldhead nymphs and a nice 10lb rainbow for Mr Jack (Polmont) in his 4 for 23lb using worm.
