Fishery Report Week Ending 12 April 2015

The Loch fished great during the week. Fresh water shrimp are on the menu for the trout, and the trout are scooping them up in numbers. The fish are loving this natural food source. So are the anglers, with some great bags. This week we had some stunning Browns at 5lb and also a double figure Rainbow. This is great news for us as we don't stock anything over 3lb. So it shows, just how good the feeding in the water is. The weather changed at the weekend, it got cold, wet and even some hail stones. So it meant fishing conditions changed. The fish went deeper with Di3 line being the best line at the weekend, and lures were working as the trout went of the shrimp during the cold weather. Booby, orange fritz, Hot head damsel and cormorants worked well during the cold spell with the hot spots being both reedy bays and school bay. We were also privileged to host a fund raiser organized by David Ezzie for The Scottish National Youth Team on Sunday and are pleased to say it was the boys who caught the stunning brown and the double figure rainbow. Well done to everyone who made this a great event and also in raising over £500 for the youth team.Anglers who did well this week. Top man was G. McGinley 19 on c/r on crunchers, D.
