A exotic fish Artilce for Your Viewing
Fly Fishing on River Allan



The Allan Water is controlled by the Allan Water Angling Improvement Association, you can buy permits by the day from the Dunblane post office or join the waiting list for the association. The waiting list to join is a about a year but this venue is members only on a saturday.


We fished the upper pools on beat 1. The pools are up near braco just before the hotel. We only used Fly Fishing as our method although you can spin for Salmon and Trout


Salmon Fishing


Equipment - Single Handed AirFlow, SLS Fly Rod.


Location


There is no need for wading at this location as the river is not a large river. You can fish from the Far bank with ease. However this water really needs to have a lot of rain before it fishes well. The banks are clean and well maintained and the water quality is excellent


Flies - Stoat Tail and Pot Belly Pig.


We fished for a number of hours, without much luck and decided to change fly to a pot belly pig, within half an hour I had managed to land a 6lb Grilse. It took me over half and hour to land the fish. (We returned the fish safely to the river) I can see now why the Pot Belly Pig is such a popular fly.


Trout Fishing


Equipment - 6/7 9ft 6 Trout Fly Rod with Floating Line


Flies - Dry Fly and Wet Flies (the day we fished just about anything was catching)


The Fishing


We found this river to teaming with lots of small brown trout about 6inch long which must be viewed as an encouraging site, in fact we managed to catch around 20 (all of which were safely returned to the water)


We found We had Great Success with Wet Flies and Small Size 16 Dry Flies. We generally had the dry fly on the top dropper and the wet on the point.


Overall


A nice clean venue, ideal for in-experienced Fly Fishing, Easy Access and Depending on the weather a good chance of a salmon. This is a great place to learn how to fish on a river.


On the things to note about this venue is the fact that they actually stock the river with brown trout to supplement the natural fish stocks. I did notice large amounts of small brown trout about 1 - 2 inches in size, which is a real positive as it means the the natural fish are spawning and this can only result in making the venue and even better trout fishing mark.

Now machined with the same oblong ventilation holes as Super Series and Big Game models, they weigh even LESS!

Yes, fish caught on an anti/reverse reel are eligible for IGFA World Records. Large Arbor Super Series, Standard Big Game, and Anti/Reverse models feature our classic Stop-a-Sub drag system. Our drag system has virtually no hesitation or stutter . . . all to improve your chances of landing the fish of a lifetime. Some models may be custom fitted with two handles instead of a handle and counter-balance weight. All machined parts are made in our factory by Abel – They do not use outside vendors, which ensures 100% quality control. Their anodizing department methodically finishes each reel utilizing a proprietary corrosion-resistant metallurgical process unique to the industry.

EastFork Fly Rods are a new range of performance fly rods at less than premium pricing. These rods utilize extra high modulus graphite materials to create a slim diameter profile blank that zings your line out with Extra Line Speed.

A ported reel seat with burl cork insert is branded with our Skeleton Fish logo. The reel seat frame is anodized to the same bronze color of the EastFork fly reel, for a perfectly coordinated outfit.

Abel Super Series Large Arbor Reels


2008 marks the 13th year Abel has made Large Arbor reels. During those years we have developed the perfect ratio of arbor (hub) size to the overall spool. Too big a hub and there’s not enough backing capacity; too small and you’ve defeated the purpose of a large arbor spool. Super Series reels sizes 6 and larger are built with a Double Pawl System. There are a number of advantages to the Abel double pawl – increased reliability and back-up strength to name two. The Double Pawl System changed our sound . . . going from click click click click to something more like clickclickclickclick. Think of a fine Swiss watch. All Super Series reels are ported (ventilated) using a design that maintains total strength and rigidity in the metal. Super Series reels are also available with a solid frame. Same price. Large Arbor Super Series, Standard Big Game, and Anti/Reverse models feature our classic Stop-a-Sub drag system. Our drag system has virtually no hesitation or stutter . . . all to improve your chances of landing the fish of a lifetime. Some models may be custom fitted with two handles instead of a handle and counter-balance weight. Super Series Large Arbor Reels and Big Game Series Reels come standard with an outgoing click. If you prefer, the click may be removed. Reels are available in your choice of a high gloss Black Coral®, non-reflective matte finish, platinum, gold, artistic, fish graphic or scenic anodized finish and solid finishes. Platinum, gold, solid finishes, artistic, fish graphic and scenic anodized reels are available at an additional cost. All machined parts are made in our factory by Abel – They do not use outside vendors, which ensures 100% quality control. Their anodizing department methodically finishes each reel utilizing a proprietary corrosion-resistant metallurgical process unique to the industry.
