ABOUT US
The
Lake of Menteith Fisheries Ltd company was formed in 1968 by the riparian
owners of the Lake. The objective was to preserve the peace and tranquility
of the area, whilst at the same time providing local employment. The
Lake at the time was increasingly becoming a venue for speed boats and water
skiing. To enable the company to become effective managers of the Lake, The
Lake of Menteith Fisheries Order Confirmation Act 1970 was passed. This stipulated
control of fishing and any activities affecting the fishing.
  
The shareholders of this company elect
the Board Members and we have a new Chairman (Alan Simpson, Arntomie - see below) who
in turn employ the (from left to right) Manager (Quint Glen), Bailiff
(Douglas Fraser) and Boat controller (Elma Nisbet).
