Lake of Menteith fishing report








Permit Office and Shop. This year we have kept the price for
catch and release the same. We have also kept the price
static for the lowest kill limit but have reduced the fish take
allowed from 6 to 4. The 10 fish kill limit has gone up by £4,
which is in line with our policy of creating a charge scheme
where fish killed are given a realistic value.

This is the shop/permit office as of today. From a shop point
of view we will be offering Peter Batchelor’s and Iain Barr’s
flies together with airflow 3G fluorocarbon tippet. We will
gradually be adding to stock (lifejackets, wellies,
waterproofs, boat seats….?) as the season progresses. Let us
know what you want! The permit office will also be able a

signing out point for drogues.
