“The Goldenloch” 20-12-2021, Fishery Blog, Week 51.
There is absolutely no reason why the fishing is so hard just now, we put in extra fish to stir and wake up the fish in the loch, these were put in a week ago, we last stocked just over three weeks ago, very little fish are being removed just now as all fishing is mostly catch and release, so why is it so hard, usually during the winter months the fishing is pretty easy and fish are caught in all areas, we have had this year an abnormal amount of wind from the East coupled with some completely flat calm days, but the fishing is very unpredictable, some people on some days get good results however, Leslie Mitchell, Dunfermline caught and realised 7,losing 5, plus lots of follows as well, Henry Adams and sister April, arrived on a very foggy morning using small lures and Diawl Bachs with buzzers ended up with 12 all returned, Regulars Alec Cuthbert fishing with Andrew Morgan, having a really hard day only had 1 each, which is unusual for them its all a bit of a mystery really, Jock Souter (not Jim, I am sorry for that typo) is again mastering the newly named Souters Corner with mucho success, he is getting really good, Geoff Gadd fishing the same day as the Bentley boys only 1, just spotted in the book the day before was quite good with Colin Dow on 4, Donald Robertson 2, Harry and Mark Anderson commenting all fish 10, caught on dry flies, Brian Kemp out for some fresh air had 1, a flying visit from Santa Sandy who unfortunately didn’t catch anything, Christmas this week and it’s the usual situation here, if anyone feels the need to fish (trying out your pressies) you are most welcome, for the last 20+ years we have allowed Xmas day anglers the use of the loch, even if its only an hour or two at no charge, if children are present LIFE JACKETS are in the hut and must be worn. FROM ANNE and I we wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS
