3.
MARKLE
(East
Lothian) It was an extremely quiet week due to the very inclement
weather especially at the weekend when very strong winds and rain
made fishing well nigh impossible. However Daryl Young from Edinburgh
had 10 on Buzzers, Jimmy Watters, Gorebridge, 3 for 8lbs 8oz on
Buzzers, Tommy Dickson, Dunbar, 5 on Buzzers and Steven Pearson from
Ormiston used an Olive Lure to take a brace weighing 7lbs 8oz.

MORTON
(Livingston) NO
REPORT THIS WEEK
5.
ORCHILL
LOCH
(Braco) A
few keen anglers have been braving the wild conditions and enjoying
some good sport. With the highlight coming on Monday when Jim Milne
from Alloa caught a lovely 12lb rainbow in his catch of 4 fish for
20lbs on a Green and White Buzzer. Also doing well was Hugh Bratchie
from Lochgelly with 4 for 8lbs 8oz on a Yellow Dancer, D. Mudie,
Alloa, 4 for 9lbs on Buzzers, Colin Nicoll, Arbroath, 3 for 6lbs on
an Orange Fritz and Fraser Wilson from Clackmannan used a Sir Alex
Ferguson to bag 2 for 4lbs. Jim Kelly from Airdrie caught 3 fish for
13lbs 8oz on a Minkie, William Olssen, Ayrshire, 4 for 14lbs on a
Blob, Bob Ross, Kilsyth, 2 for 4lbs on a Pink Flexi, John Speedie,
Cumbernauld, 2 fish for 4lbs on a Hot Head Damsel and Ronnie
Stanovich from Glasgow managed 3 fish for 10lbs 8oz on a Kate
McLaren.
6.
SWANSWATER
(Stirling) It
was another changeable week at Swanswater, weather-wise, but most
days the fishing was pretty good, despite rain and wind. The water
clarity was reasonable all week and improved towards the weekend.
The wind was out of the east for much of the week but this did not
really affect the fishing. On Sunday there was a strong west wind
and the island was the place to be. During the rest of the week
fish were being taken all round the pond at around 4 to 6 feet deep.
The usual small lures and nymphs were the favourites this week with
the most successful patterns being Dancer, Cat’s Whisker,
Cormorant, PTN, Montana, Bloodworm and Buzzer. The two small ponds
were also fishing well and provided a bit more shelter on the windier
days. Tigers and Blues continue to feature in the catch returns.
