Ballo Reservoir in Fife has been left almost empty, with members of the Ballo Fly Fishing Syndicate warning their trout stock is now trapped in just 12 inches of water.

More than 100 dead fish have already been recovered from the reservoir, and anglers fear the rest of their fish will not survive the week.
