“The Goldenloch”
17-October-2021, Fishery Blog, Week 42.
Gesso what a rain last night Saturday, water today is a bit coloured, but not bad, so 10cm fell in the last 24hrs that’s a lot, you could tell by the boats this morning, so I had a celebrity visitor helping me, I think he was looking for the twins, over the years we have had a few celebs here but this one was out the blue, Yesterday Saturday was a good day, Grant McGregor 7 released using Diawl Bachs, Rod Thaw 5 released, Fred Padden 9 realised Diawl Bachs, Malcolm Brown and peter back after a short break had a good day, Steven Fraser 5 and brother Scott, 8 both lads enjoying a couple of days plus camping, Derek Robertson had 8 on suspenders however a huge amount of fun was had by using muddlers, Geoff Gadd 6 returned, Matt Donaldson managed 2 on a hard day with really low air pressure, Richard McCleary had a good day and was a happy chap with 3 returned, Sandy Band had a couple a Brian Kemp again experimenting had 1 and D Lindsay using a Black Half hog two good sized fish, that brings me to the point that my buy in size for fish is 1 kilo, not smaller and not larger, so any fish caught of a good weight is an aged fish, that is just about everything, most of the fish at the “Goldenloch” are completely naturalised and have been feeding on the abundant food source available, hence the reason they are in great condition and fight like demons, this is what makes catching fish here that bit harder to catch but is really worthwhile when you get a fish on, today Sunday we have fish rising a feeding also fish chasing fry its just awash with fish, a couple of lads struggled to catch anything today from a boat, but they are now on the bank after finding a fly that works, and are catching fish.
Fly Fishing is a Pastime, it is not only relaxing, but also rewarding, both mentally and physically, come to the “Goldenloch” enjoy your Hobby to the max, no stress, only tranquil surroundings abundant wildlife, great fish, Brown, Blues and Rainbows, you will not be disappointed.
