Reasonable summer fishing likely at Orchill Fishery

A commercial put-and-take on the Orchill estate near Auchterarder, between Perth and Stirling, offering a couple of stocked rainbow waters on lowland farmland. Day tickets, tuition, year-round fishing. It sits at the opposite end of the Perthshire fishery spectrum from Frandy — lowland rather than upland, sheltered rather than exposed, and reliably stocked for anglers who want to bend a rod without a drive into the hills. The fishery has held a following through two decades of changing ownership and commercial fashion, mostly because it does the basic things properly: stocked fish in reasonable numbers, clean bank access, and staff who know what they're talking about. Not a place of wild romance, but a good place to spend a morning.
