Corranny is a compact stocked rainbow-trout lake in the Rosslea area. It is one of the cleaner small-water adds because the trout focus, season and access rules are all explicit in official DAERA material. Large attractor flies early and smaller dries or nymphs in warmer conditions are specifically called out, so anglers get a clearer picture here than they do on many minor stocked waters.
A patient day, if you fancy it
Good wave on — drift country. Take your time — read the water before you cast.
Conditions on the water
Some readings unavailable — check directly before fishing.
The brief
The plan
Set up a broadside drift and cover the water systematically. Work Small streamers on the bob and Blob-style attractors on the point.
If the main plan is not working, switch to a smaller, more imitative pattern fished slower and deeper. A change of drift angle can also make a difference.
Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.
A gentle ripple is ideal for drifting — broadside drift covering the wind lanes should be productive.

Numbers are intensity 0 (none) to 3 (peak) — a guide, not a guarantee.

Why today scores what it does
- Cloud cover (mixed) suits the fishery well.
- Hawthorn Fly is in its seasonal window, boosting the chance of targeted feeding.
