About Cobbinshaw Reservoir

Tucked into Alba / Scotland, United Kingdom, Cobbinshaw Reservoir is a reservoir that fishes differently season to season. Spring brings fish into the shallows to spawn or feed on early baitfish; midsummer pushes them to cooler, deeper water; autumn turns them aggressive again as they pack on weight before winter. Anglers planning a trip to Cobbinshaw Reservoir should check water temperature and recent weather — a sudden cold front can shut a reservoir like this down for a day.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  • For Brown trout

    When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

  • For Mirror carp

    Pre-baiting your chosen swim for several days prior to fishing can significantly increase your chances of success when targeting mirror carp.
