Overview

This beat is one of the most popular upper Tweed beats. Much of the water is ideal for first time anglers, but there is plenty to keep the experienced anglers happy too. There are two miles of interesting double bank fishing and another mile of single bank, making three miles in all.

The beat is in an attractive location and easily reached by car, although access to the main hut can be restricted after a really large flood. The banks are generally grass with few interfering trees, so that casting and walking are made relatively easy.

There are fifteen pools, including the Traquair Boat Pool which must be one of the best pools in the area (without a boat which isn't really needed). There is one ghillie and the number of rods allowed to fish is nine, split into three beats and rotating on an am/pm basis.

Please note that it may be necessary for parties of other than three people to be split over separate beats.

Plenty of fish (coloured from what I saw), but none were taking. As usual, should have been there the day before when 6 were caught. Rufus is a very helpful ghillie. Since the meeting point is a car park and there are few facilities available, I think the pricing is a bit high.

A good fishery, and a perfect ghillie. Before Traquair, i was six days in Lower Pavilion, and i have the same quality.

The beat was good and another time other than late November might have proved productive.

JamesV

Always a pleasure to fish Traquair however Storm Babet curtailed our time on the water

Ian S

A lot of walking involved, could do with a loo available. Otherwise great
