Queenside Loch.
Situated in the heart of Clyde Murshiel Park, Queenside Loch is a typical hill loch. Small brown trout predominate, but fish over the pound mark are present and occassionally caught.
The loch is a good forty minute walk from the visitors car park and should only be undertaken by those of a robust nature, the views and the fishing make it a worthwhile walk. Ask for directions from the visitor centre or just follow the path, over the River Calder and on for about 1 mile. Look out for the white post on the left hand side of the path (see picture) and follow the burn up to the loch.
Typically it fishes better on a bright calm day with small black bushy flies a good starting point. Early morning and late evening provide the best sport with the trout very free rising if the conditions are right.
Strictly flyfishing only.
