Wellsfield Fishery is fishing very well at the moment with this milder weather for both fly fishers and bait anglers. The average weight this week was over 3lb per trout.
The fishery is open 7 days, 8am – 5pm. Many anglers caught their fish limits, and we are stocking the lochans well to meet demand.
