Not fished it for a while - but best spots were usually down at the dam wall and boathouse bay (on the right side at the first cage).

There's a wee spot opposite Boathouse bay (look for the fence and fish up loch of it) there's a deep spot there which can hold a lot of fish ( we refer to it as wee Tams Hole !)

Lures and blobs on a Di3 would be a good starting point.

Ask Alastair in the lodge for info...

reports available on their website too....

Let us know how you get on - we plan a visit next month.
