About Carron Water

Running through Alba / Scotland, United Kingdom, Carron Water is the kind of stream that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Carron Water hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques

  • For European grayling

    Grayling often hold in deeper runs and pools, so focus your efforts there using a drifting technique to present your bait naturally.

  • For Brown trout

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

  • For European perch

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
