Swanswater is my “local” for want of a better name. I can literally walk there in about 40 minutes and while I have been relearning fly fishing in the latter half of 2010, it was my venue of choice.I have to say I enjoy it there especially the smaller ponds. The big loch can be variable and can go very dour. It’s definitely a place not to become to fixated on one fly, one technique or one location.I went up Saturday for a 4 hour session- arriving just before 12 to get the best of the day through to close around 16:00. As it turned out they are now open to 16:30 and on a day like Saturday, it was still quite light even then.
