ORCHILL TROUT FISHERY
(Braco) The weather was wildly mixed
last week starting off on the Sunday with -8degrees and frozen and
this Sunday it has seen the worst rain and wind of the winter but
there have been a few anglers braving the good bits of the week. Ivor
Campbell from Aberfoyle had 2 fish for 9lbs on a Yellow Dancer,
Dougie Allan (Callander) 1 fish for 1lb 4oz on a Pink Snake, William
Campbell (Stirling) 2 fish weighing 6lbs on a Yellow Owl and John
Gillespie from Stirling used a Dunkeld to take a brace for 6lbs
4oz.Mark Dewar from Bannockburn caught 3 fish for 9lbs on a Green Pea
and W Crawford (Fauldhouse) had 4 fish for 10lbs 12oz on a Pink Apps
and a Black Rabbit.
Because
there is so much natural feeding in the water right now the fish are
being attracted by bright colours so flies and lures incorporating
bright green, red, yellow and orange are all doing well. The Eagle
Club from Tillicoultry had 10 fish for 36lbs 8oz with A Beverage
having the top bag with 3 fish for 12lbs - best fish 6lbs on a
Bloodworm.On Sunday, Alexander Buses had 21 fish for 53lbs 8oz -
heaviest basket S Bennie with 4 fish 12lbs - best 4lbs 12oz on a
Bright Green Buzzer, Ian Law (Paisley) 3 fish weighing 7bs 8oz on a

SWANSWATER
(Stirling)
Sunday saw frosty weather, a
little ice on the main pond due to a broken-down aerator, but plenty
of space to fish and a good number of anglers out enjoying their
sport. The weather was mild and damp for the rest of week and
conditions remained good. On Sunday and Monday, the fish were to be
found in the far bay and the island, but as the week went on they
moved further up to the channel and back of the islands. As the
temperature went up, the fish also rose in the water and finished up
around 2 to 3 feet below the surface. Most fish were taken on the
usual lures – Cat’s Whisker, Dancer, Ally McCoist, Damsel, - with
a few still being picked up on Cormorant and Bibio. The Annual
Fund-Raising “Day after Boxing Day” Competition takes place on
Friday 27th December 2019 starting at 9.00am. Please contact the
Fishery for further details and to enter. Proceeds from the day will
go to Strathcarron Hospice as usual.
