[IMG][/IMG]This is one of the 20 Brown Trout up to 15lbs that have been grown on and stocked to over winter for the coming season.

The Trout were netted from the loch at 7ins long and are from the natural strain from the Loch.

20 were stocked and another 20 up to 5lbs will go in at the start of march.

Enjoy.

How do the wild trout spawn DH? Have been to the site http://www.anglersholidaycottages.co.uk/prod02.htm
and seen an ariel view of the two lochs but no inlet stream is visible.

I was in a syndicate that had a 2 acre pool near Denbigh in North Wales. We only stocked rainbows but there was a population of browns in the pool and we saw and caught juvenile browns from time to time.

The inlet stream was barely 100 metres long, came from a spring and was badly silted with no obvious gravel.

Either the resident browns found a patch of gravel somewhere in the stream, spawned where there was no gravel or spawned in the pool where there was the odd gravel patch. All seem improbable and yet they were there.

Nice advert!
Should this not be in Classified?

It is not an advert I just fish the lochs from time to time and happened to be fishing when the owner stocked the lochs.

There are three inlet streams ,One on lyoch and two on cleuch look at ordinance survey maps and you will see them clearly.

Browns up to 7lbs have been netted in the streams.

Many anglers are looking for brown trout fishing more and more thats why I posted the pictures.

Not to advertise

When did we start becoming so sceptical?

I see more and more people having to write after a recommendation in 'Tackle Talk' or report, that they have no connection to the product, owners, etc. Just seems so ridiculous to me.

Anyway, nice fish and that loch sounds far too tempting

I prefer to pass by there and fish the nearby river .
The fish are much nicer there and not stuffed full of pellets .

B.R.

I just wonder how heavy these fish will be after over-wintering unless they continue to be fed pellets.
