Default carron

Hi,
The carron has been fishing very well. I have been up a couple of times recently and had 3 and 7 however others who have done a lot better, with mates having up to 21. Dries appear to be the best with the likes of bibio hoppers, cdc shuttlecocks, sizes 14, 16 doing well. Pulling wets has also worked but not as well as the dries generally. Hitting the right area at the right time has also been important. The Dam, Burnhouse, Binn bays and around Gull island have been good for us. Remember and ask the boatmen as they both fish and are always good for up to date information.
Cheers.
