Avochie is situated at Rothiemay and has the River Isla joining the Deveron at
its Junction pool. It consists of 2.5 miles of mostly double bank fishing. It
has 23 named pools- far too many to give individual descriptions of . It has
many good rapids and streams in both necks and tails of pools.
This is a fantastic beat to fish once the fish are in residence. It is well kept
and has easy wading and can be fished from the bank in many places. The beat can
be cut in two with the lower half fishing better in low water and the top half
in high water.. The beat takes 5 rods and is "classic" fly water
.
It usually yields one of the first spring fish off the river and this can be
followed with some of the most fantastic brown-trout fishing you could wish to
find anywhere in April and May. The beat would be in my top three off the river
and is really worth considering.
The pools are as follows.
Upper Table Rock, Table Rock, Otter Pool, Bridge Pool,
Joiners Run , Joiners, Carpenters, Oakwoods, Weir Pot, Weir
Pool, House Pool, Isla Run, The Glide, Junction, GreenBank,
Island Pool, Long Pool, Boat Pool , Claverlands, Bend, Upper
Bunkers, Middle Bunkers, Lower Bunkers and Bridge Run.
The beat has two Self catering cottages and can offer
Avochie house fully staffed which sleeps 12 for a luxurious
stay.
