Anyone fished Lochter and insch recently as im coming up at the weekend to fish em both and would like to know if there fishing well etc and what tactics and flies are working,i tried to post on Fishing the fly forum but im still awaiting confirmation and i reckon i will be at the venues before i get accepted to there site any info much appreciated as allways ty

tinsoldier,

They are both small stocked, albeit well stocked , waters. When I fish them I tend to fish lures eg orange fritz, black cat etc on a floating line and if no success try a sinking line although not strictly necessary as neither lochter or insch, in all there several pools are all that deep.

So saying nymphs , Diawl bachs , PTNs, buzzers will also take fish. Such stockies are very changeable, so if what you have been casting is not working, change your flies. There are no great secrets to fishing either venue.

Tight lines,

Enjoy your fishing

Thanks ,i checked out both fisherys last year and opted to fish Lochter as it had the go karts etc to entertain my kid ,took 7 fish on mix of black and olive buzzers fished washing line style,but im coming up with 2 fishing mates to show em some nice fisherys as our local one aint fishing too well at moment

To be honest i dont fish any of the those waters much and found them to be average fishery's!
If you want a nice venue, fish haddo which is only 10 mins from lochter!
Iam not a small water person but as far as small waters go this place takes some beating and it even has old leven boats on it!
You wont be let down

would love to fish loads of waters up and down the country but as im a wheelchair user i got to pick waters carefully for access ,some claim good access only to turn up and theres one platform to fish from and usuually into a headwind,maybe ill compose a list of waters that has good access for the disabled angler.
