2.
ORCHILL TROUT FISHERY
(Braco) NO REPORT THIS WEEK
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

FORBES OF
KINGENNIE

4.
MARKLE
(East Lothian)
It has been
extremely quiet of late with the very wild weather keeping the
anglers indoors but those who have been out recently have done pretty
well. John Daly from Edinburgh had 4 on a Dancer, Jackie Hay
(Haddington) had 2 for 8lbs on c/r, Dave Smith (Dunbar) had a couple
of visits taking 5 on each on a mixture of small lures and Bloodworms
whilst John Thomson from East Linton used a Bloodworm to bag 5 on
c/r. Bruce Hunter from Edinburgh had 3 on Buzzers, Derek DeMarco
(Haddington) 4 on Buzzers and Derek Powell from Haddington had 4 on a
Grizzle Cat.
5.
SWANSWATER
(Stirling)
The last couple of weeks have seen some horrendous weather conditions
that have deterred even the hardiest of anglers from venturing out.
The storm force winds and around 10” of rain and sleet made fishing
almost impossible. The water was coloured for a few days but now
there has been so much rain that it is clear again and any excess is
just running straight through the ponds. Eyewater Angling Club
braved wind, rain, thunder and lightning on Saturday and although
they were just about blown off Swanswater, many of them had a
successful few hours on the small ponds where it was much more
sheltered, heading back to Eyemouth with a very respectable 22 fish
amongst them. Diawl Bach Damsel, Dabbler and Dancer were the most
successful patterns with the fish to be found around 2 to 3 feet
down. The Fishery is open every day from 8.00am to 5.00pm.
Amongst
those venturing out and catching fish were Les Cooper, Dunblane, 2
for 7lb 8oz, plus 4 C&R, Douglas Aitcheson, Eyemouth, 4 for 10lb
including a Gold, Fraser Aitcheson, Eyemouth, 4 for 9lb 12oz from the
Meadow Pond, Brian Douglas, Eyemouth, 2 for 7lb 4oz form the Meadow
Pond including 5lb Rainbow and Ian Callow, Eyemouth, 4 for 9lb 4oz
from the Meadow Pond including a Gold. Gav Adams caught and released
5 including a Tiger and a Gold, Dave Fairley caught and released 3
and David Hennessey 3 for 6lb 10oz including a Gold on the bait pond.
