Burns Trout Fishery

Burns Trout Fishery sits on the tranquil outskirts of Tarbolton in Ayrshire, deep in the heart of Burns Country.

The fishery offers several distinct fishing areas: a large loch restricted to fly fishing, a triangle loch accommodating both fly and bait fishing, a smaller bait-only loch, and a large bait pond in front of the lodge.

All waters are stocked weekly with Rainbow and Brown trout, averaging 1. 5–2 lbs, with larger fish running into double figures.

The site is well set up for visitors, with ample parking, good disabled access to most parts of the lochs, toilet facilities, and a small lodge offering warm drinks and snacks. Club and corporate bookings are also catered for.
