Flies and Tactics

Rosslynlee is well known as a 'top of the water' fishery, which means a floating line can be used here most of the year, although on blustery days some anglers change to an intermediate line. The water itself is around 10-12 feet deep around the shallowest area and deepens gradually to around 22 feet at the dam.

Our anglers get good bags of fish by using flies such as Buzzers, Bloodworms, Nymphs, Damsels, Dancers, Cats Whiskers, and Black Fritz lures. From spring to autumn the dry-fly fishing is great fun with CDC's, Black Spiders, Dry Olive, Suspender Buzzers, Shipman Buzzers, Hoppers, Sedges, Muddlers, Daddies, and foam Beetles.

Fishing Report 12th June 2013

The past two weeks of warm, sunny weather has made some very enjoyable fishing, although this week the water is a bit too warm for the fish making them lie deeper during the afternoons. The mornings start well with anglers catching with dry flies such as Daddies, Sedges and Hoppers then as we go into afternoons most catch with goldhead Buzzers, Nymphs and lures. Evening fishing has been mixed due to weather changes eg sudden fall in temperature, change of wind direction or even lack of wind. One evening we will have a great rise of trout to dry flies and the next evening they will want wets just under the surface.
