Default Borlands boiling with fish

Hi all i was up at BORLANDS today ,the place was boiling overwith rising troutSize 16 KLINKHAMMER was the way to go,and small SEDGE patterns.The only down side is the clowns who left POWERBAIT blatantly next to the seats around the place.If you need to POACH ,BORLANDS your a sad sad BARSTEWARD. Theres more fish in per ACRE than ANYWHERE in SCOTLAND. Anyway get yourself up for the evening rise through the week ,it starts from 4pm.GREAT SPORT

Iknow its easy and thers loads of fish in there , but its 15mins from my door and its hard to drive past it on a week day and get ripped off at somewhere like COWANSan hour away. The membership is outstanding value .

Last year it was £35 for the season and £5 for the day after that, or i think it was £7 for 2 fish. I think youll agree thats untouchable value. Mind you i think its been put up a little BUT nothing to grumble about.SOME PEOPLE WILL THO Quite simply a well run fishery with loads of fish in and the commitee and members should be proud of that quite honestly they could double the membership for the service they provide and to their credit they dont.Give it a try m8 ,its busy at the weeknds tho ,I WONDER WHY

Is it just a well run fishery , because there are loads of fish in or is it a well run fishery because its easy . I can see where you are coming from because lets face it a majority of the people nowadays only consider the numbers they are catching . it always amazing how people can remember when they are on there 28th , 30th , or 34th fish or whatever . me i just remember if the fish were good quality or any decent one,s i catch . Mate of mine was up there last week , he was saying a good few of the people there were catching the fish dragging them up the bank , unhooking them then sliding them into the water with there feet. Kinda say,s enough about the place..
