Best in the area is ledyatt on the Coupar Angus road about 10 mins from the city centre. You also have Ledcreiff which is a lovely spot but can be hard going. Carlogie is attrition fishin shoulder to shoulder round a puddle but the catch rate is high. Rivers Isla and Dean are close by and if you want to travel a bit boat fishing at Butterstone loch is pretty good but pricey. You also got the tay over that way.

If it were me id be fishing Rescobie

many thanks for your input on venues around the dundee area, i will look at them in turn and let you know how i get on cheers and tight lines paul

Although I am not a local to the area, I have fished Ledyatt whist on holiday in Dundee. This is a really nice water and the fish are top quality- I caught a fish of approx 15lb (only fished there about 3 times). If you like fishing buzzers in gin clear water and lovely surroundings this is the place for you.

For me it would have to be Rescobie , for great fishing and the friendliest welcome and help available. 100% recommended
