Scottish Flyfisher

With six ponds from which to choose, it is easy to find yourself a quiet corner where you can while away a few hours in peace and tranquility while trying to tempt one of our fish out of the water. We welcome all, from the complete beginner to the seasoned pro, on your own or in a group. Whilst primarily a fly fishery, we are happy for visitors to use whichever method they favour, be it spinning, float or of course fly. The ponds are stocked with rainbow trout at the beginning of April, and thereafter every few weeks through the season to ensure a that there are always plenty out there to try and catch. They tend to be partial to a diet of worms or sweetcorn, as well as flies. Our catch book is available to view and this shows catches mostly around the 3/4 to 1lb mark, up to 2lb.

A ticket costs £20, with no time limit – the fishery opens at 10am – other than when the fishery closes at 5.30pm. This allows you to catch and release as many as you’re able, and to keep one fish. No problem if you wish to keep more, with there just being an additional fee of £5 per fish. For avoidance of doubt, please note that our fishery is not ‘fishing in a bucket’, so we offer no guarantees that every fisherman will catch something, as this comes down to a combination of skill, conditions & luck on any given day.
