Well, despite the best efforts of storm Garry to deter us, the new seasons fish went into the lakes today without loss. It is always good to see the lakes stocked. Time to shrug off the winter, dust off the gear and get ready for opening day. The lakes are in fine ply, full but […]

2019 Spring Courses dates
I have just put up the proposed dates for my 2019 spring salmon and trout courses in the shop under tuition. Salmon Courses: Please note that the Murthly course will show no rods available until I hear back from those who came this year and who therefore have the right of first refusal. The Dalmarnock […]
Opening day at Little Saxbys Farm
I think I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Ron was the only member who braved the elements and he was suitably rewarded with several nice fish. A long lunch ensued!
Our Trout season opens on Monday
With yet more of the roller coaster weather ride to come – they are warning of more snow at the weekend – we kick off our new season on Monday. A bi-product of the weather is that the lakes are in fine fettle, the big lake just a hint of colour but the smaller lake […]

One day Trout Course 25th March 2017
What a cracking day! Bright sun and a gusty east wind should have rather spoiled our chances, but mid morning saw the first serious hatch of Alder and the trout were going mad for them. Some big fish too as you can see from the pics. Well done to all who took part and particularly […]
Trout Season opens.
Don’t you just love the weather! Week before opening day and there is 18 degrees, warm sunshine, frogs spawning all over the lakes and the first serious fly hatches whilst we stocked the lakes. Then on opening day winter returns with driving wind and rain almost all day. Nevertheless two of the rods braved the […]
Happy Christmas
The salmon have run, the season is done, the rods all put neatly away. Not much left to do, other than re-whip and glue, line loops and leaders all frayed. Then sit at my vice, trying to tie something so nice that it earns a place in my box but most lack the lustre to even begin to […]
