Fishery Information

Danskine Loch is a small and picturesque loch located within a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in Scotland. The original carp stock has been depleted, but the Scottish Carp Group (SCG) has restocked the loch with wild carp, common carp, and mirror carp, which have been caught at over 20lbs. The loch also contains roach and a large head of perch, with some specimens over 2lbs. Disabled access is limited due to some areas’ muddy track and overgrown lochside. Anglers can find many accessible swims, particularly near the car park end of the loch. A key is required for car park access, which can be purchased from the Products Section of ClubMate for £6.50, including postage and packaging. Due to shooting, the loch is closed for fishing from November 10th to February 7th each year.
