Issued by Jim Boyd on behalf of the following fisheries on Monday 30 January 2017. The report is for the week ending Sunday, 29 January 2017.
1. FRANDY (Glendevon). The fishery is now closed for the 2016 season.
2. FORBES OF KINGENNIE (Broughty Ferry) NO REPORT THIS WEEK
3. MARKLE (East Lothian) NO REPORT THIS WEEK
4. ORCHILL LOCH (Braco) There were some very cold days last week with the wind being the worst of it at times. The water has been fishing very well on the top half with buzzers and various coloured Fritz patterns. Jim Linton from Moodiesburn had 4 fish for 17lbs 12oz – best 7lbs on a Wotsit, Gavin Wilson, Edinburgh, 3 for 11lbs on Buzzers, C Meiklejohn, Stirling, 1 for 7lbs on a Fab, Laurie Rumgay, Perth, 2 for 9lbs on an Orange Lure and Ronnie Stanovich from Glasgow 2used a Damsel to bag a brace weighing 10lbs. T Wright from Edinburgh took 3 for 11lbs – best 5lbs on a Damsel, Greg Hogan, Stirling, 3 for 15lbs – best 6lbs on Bugs and William Dunnachie from Cumbernauld caught 2 for 7lbs on a Black Cat.
5. SWANSWATER (Stirling) It was a mixed week, weather-wise, with some mild days and some frosty ones. The water temperature dropped back down to 3oC and the fish were generally deeper than the previous week, mostly around 3 to 4 feet down in Swanswater, although still in the top couple of feet in the Meadow Pond. The island and the boats continue to be the best areas to fish although the dam is also productive. Lures such as Cat’s Whisker, Dancer, Ally McCoist, Blobs and other Fritz patterns were the favourite patterns this week with Buzzers, Bloodworm, Cormorant, and Damsel also taking fish. The Meadow Pond continues to fish well and is a popular venue when things are getting a bit tough on the main pond. The Fishery is still open every day from 8.00am to 4.30pm
Danny Doherty, Denny, 5 for 19lb 8oz including 9lb 8oz Rainbow, Ian Whitelaw, Dunipace, 5 for 11lb including a Gold and a Blue, plus 3 C&R, Derek Russell, Bathgate, 5 for 10lb 12oz from the Meadow Pond, including 2 Golds, plus 5 C&R and Frank Barr, Falkirk, 4 for 10lb including a Blue. Billy Weir, Bannockburn, 3 for 8lb, Tommy Wilson, Alexandria, 3 for 8lb, Ricky Goodwin, Larbert, 3 for 7lb 8oz, Alan Burke, Falkirk, 3 for 6lb 12oz plus 2 C&R and Francisco Gonzales, 2 for 5lb.
