The fishery is now open late till 10pm 7 days a week for evening fishing sessions for both fly and bait fishing on the 3 lochans. Another busy week at the fishery saw the three lochans fish very well indeed producing hard fighting devon rainbows. Top of water sport was good using a floating line with buzzers, nymphs and small lures. The 3-acre bait pond is also fishing really well with bait and spinners. The average trout size was 3lb 3oz, with many fish in the 4lb 6lb range caught on both fly and bait.
Two specimens were caught this week – F Robertson (Tullibody) landed a fine 9lb rainbow in hins 2 for 12lb using fly, and T Millar (Stirling) landed a fine 8lb 4oz rainbow in his 3 for 13lb.
