Fishery

When brothers Dave and Sandy Buchanan opened a two pool trout fishery in 1984, little did they realise how the complex would expand into one of the busiest fishing venues in Scotland.

Newmill Trout fishery, near Lanark, is a six pool fishery with its own hatchery, 3000 sq ft tackle shop and cafe. Newmill caters for all aspects of freshwater fishing with a wide range of fish from 1lb 8oz stockies to mature trout at 20lbs.

In 2003, one of the six ponds was converted into a coarse fishery containing carp, tench, rud, and roach. The fishery is stocked daily Monday to Friday, and two or three times a day during the busy weekends. Newmill lies almost equidistant between Glasgow and Edinburgh, three miles north of the town of Lanark on the A706.
