Pipers is a rugged pool. It is full of large boulders which fish love. Much can be fished from the bank and wadding is not recommended for beginners. The fly on a double hander works well in this pool. It fishes best in low and medium water.
Shepherds is a long gravelly pool with several croys on the north bank.
In the tail a number of huge boulders were added in 1996 to provide extra lies. Aberfeldy AC issues tickets for Pipers and Shepherds. Bank Street Aberfeldy Tel. Salmon Fishings Day tickets and week lets are now managed by the owners - The Bolfracks Estate. Permits can be obtained from the Bolfracks estate office.
