Well that's the Brown Trout season over and I have decided to make an effort to visit some Rainbow Fisheries over the winter. Never tried one before, so it will be a whole new experience for me. I'm not to sure if I will enjoy it or not but I will give it a go. I have made arrangement to fish Burnhouse Fishery this week, which is about a 30 minute drive away. It is a small man made loch of about 3-4 acres and I have been tying some lures and buzzers in anticipation of catching some fair sized Rainbows, more in hope than expectation. During the winter I am determined to have a few casting lessons and then buy a permit for the River Kelvin and also apply to my local angling club for membership on their loch. Hopefully next year will bring better weather, it couldn't possibly be worse than the wash out that was our summer. My local river has virtually been in spate all year, I live just a few yards from it's banks and I have never known it to be so high for so long.
