Successful lines for the week again were Floating, M/tip, S/tip. Flies taking the most fish were Buzzers / Muskins, Crunchers, black/green Lures, Damsels and Fabs. The Loch water is still clear at present.
There were 47 boats out over those days with 77 rods, 44 fish were kept, weighing 128¾ lbs, and 125 fish were returned. The change in the weather and atmospheric pressure made a detrimental change to the catches over the weekend.
