Swanswater Fishery
Bio
Set in beautiful natural surroundings, yet only 5 mins from the M9/M80 junction, near to Stirling. Swanswater offers fly and bait fishing from top quality trout. The main water ( Swanswater ) is some 10 acres and offers fly fishing for up to 30 bank rods plus 3 boats for hire. The small Meadow Pond is also fly only and the Millpond is available for both fly and bait fishing.
The 2 smaller ponds the Millpond and the Meadow Pond are stocked with the same quality hard fighting fish as Swanswater.
We have a daily stocking policy with top quality Rainbow, Golden, Brown, Blue and Tiger Trout. All fish are reared on site and only triploid trout are used. Swanswater is stocked with all varieties from 2lb to 18lb.
The fish in the smaller ponds are slightly small average weight, but bigger fish are quite common. Golden Trout are popular in all three ponds and can be easily seen and targeted. There is a wide variety of fly and insect life providing natural feeding in the ponds and tactics vary with the time of year and weather conditions. Many of our regular anglers are more than happy to give advice to those not so familiar with the water, so do not be afraid to ask. Weekly fishing reports are available and these will give you an indication of what are the most successful methods at the time.
Facilities at Swanswater include a comfortable fishing lodge where permits are issued and soft drinks, crisps and sweets are for sale; toilets including disabled toilet; and a large car park. A selection of flies and nylon are on sale, and tackle can be hired from Reception.
There is disabled access to the ponds including car parking at Swanswater for disabled anglers.
Tuition with a qualified angling instructor can be arranged. A variety of permits is available, and we run sessions so you can fish at a time to suit yourself.
