The Idea was to drain,work the coal.then return to loch.

Last I heard was it is to be drained by the opencast company, worked for coal and refilled with the burns cleared for natural stocking of wild brownies; there is a huge development going on from the Gask road right to Lasodie and will evolve over the years. Some "structures" are already in place.

some guys still fish it for pike. i heard of a 14lber being caught not long before Christmas.

i know some guys fished it for the trout, but dont know if they still do...

most pike get deep hooked by the jimmies who fish it and end up dead.
