This
well known fishery is well worth a visit not a huge sprawling
loch but a series of ponds around ten in total you can wander
off and fish any of them and catch fish well into double figures.

Loch
Eldrig

park is private fishing. The pike in here are on the small side
but fun. I sent a friend here and he had over 30 runs in 1day
but the largest fish was only 51/2lb.

The
White Loch of Myrton (Monrieth)This
loch is good and offers the keen pike angler shelter from the
most severe winds the water is deep and surrounded by trees, It
has suffered from polution in the past and this keeps the size
of the pike down but the numbers are quite good I have had 20
fish here in a day up to 81/2lb.We
have an extensive selection of deadbaits and tackle.
Lochs
Ronald and Heron Off A75 west of Newton Stewart -

Ronald is a large open loch with some superb
pike fishing available on the windy days Heron is about 50 yards

roach and bream.We

RIVERS
The
River Cree and Bladnoch.
Both
of these well known rivers can produce excellent sport for the
visiting angler early on in the season the odd springer and lots
of kelts the back end of the season producing more fish as the
water levels rise 31 fish off one beat in 1week on the Bladnoch.Worthy
of a mention is The Galloway Fishery Trust which has spent a great
deal of time and effort improving and maintaining the rivers in
this area and have helped the numbers of salmon enormously by
striping fish and re-introducing the fry into the rivers.
We
carry an extensive range of flies and game tackle.

SEA
.
Boat fishing
Boat fishing is brilliant Tope and Pollack is my passion Luce
Bay holds some of the best Tope fishing in the UK, Pollack fishing
is good but double figure fish are rare light tackle can produce
an amazing fight and the fish are plentyfull in summer months.
Many species of fish frequent these shores Wrass many diferent
types, codling, whiting,coalfish, black bream, mackerel, smoothound
just to name a few.
Beach
fishing
Beach fishing is plentyful Bass is on top of the list spinning
and bait fishing is the prefered method although fly fishing for
bass is catching on. Bass are around most of the year Febuary
seems to be the poorest month.Many other species are available
from the shore such as flatfish ,pollack etc.
Rock
fishing
Some great rock marks exist and lots of good fun can be had.
Float fishing with live rag worm can produce some excellant wrass
and pollack, sandeel can bring the bigger pollack in, spinning
produces mackerel and pollack and fly fishing for pollack is great
fun.
We have an extensive selection of blast
frozen bait, Ammo sandeel ect, live rag worm and a teriffic range
