Default Buzzers on Menteith
Looking for some advice. Been visiting Lake of Menteith now and then and thanks to forum members had some good action. How ever I want to spend a day just buzzer fishing to see how I get on so what colour and what size would you suggest I try thanks in advance

Alex

Fish seem to be in the deep water,except for dog island to malling shore area.but the fish are very spooky there.
slow retrieve hs been working for me.except for the dries.
