Coarse Loch
Good returns from the coarse loch continued this week with plenty of Roach which are now a good size,Bream,skimmers,Carp and Ide.Average bags are around and over the 15lbs in weight per session and Scott Arthur had a nice Common at 6lbs 2ozs.Poles are doing best and soft pellet and meat with occasionally sweetcorn working aswell.With the loch busy now it is important that pegs are prebooked to avoid disappointment
Millbuies trout fishery.
Fishing has been good for some and slow for others.Main difference is what fly is on the end of the line and rather than fish the open water its around the margins where fish will be caught as fish wait for falling insects from the tree lined banks.Red and black and lime and white have done well over the week and everyone has caught with both lochs fishing now there is no weed and fish are rising very well. important that boats are prebooked as the lochs are very busy especially in good weather.Fish are now in peak condition and fighting hard.
