The far dam i belive is fishing well as is the corner of the dam opposite the boats.
When you come out the boat bay turn right and fish all the wee bays up to gull island , normally fish are found down this shore espcecially the bows.
Fly choice is very varried but i would not be without an orange blob on my top dropper  :wink
Cormorants/kates/diawl bachs and yellow dancers are all worth a try  :z18
You will be lucky to get out this weekend if the wind stays up, they are very prone to not letting boats out due to high winds :z6
I went down last month and was turned about as the forecast was for the wind to pick up,
Hope you get out anyway and have some good sport  :z18

hi alll havent been on for a while.hope all is well

fishing on carron as baz said corner of dam wall across from the boats.carron bay and bin bay are good for the browns and oak tree and road shore is good for the rainbows
flys small mini lures and wets.try silver sparkler on the bob bibo or green tailed kate in the middle and a black cats wisker on the point.problery this time of year and a wet cell 3 or there abouts but if your after rainbows you will have to work very had to find.best bet for sport would be carron bay for the browns

i love carron.would fish there every day if i could

let me know how you did would love to get a day down there before they close
