Police rprobe after fishermen's bodies found in reservoir POLICE are investigating the deaths of two fishermen after their bodies were recovered from a local reservoir. Officers had been looking for the fishermen after they were reported missing by concerned family members when they failed to return from a fishing trip to Gladhouse Reservour, near Gorebridge, on Sunday. An aircraft from RAF Kinloss was drafted in to help with the search of the 460-acre reservoir - the largest area of freshwater in the Lothians - but the search was hampered by heavy rain. The bodies of the two men were spotted by the helicopter crew at 3am yesterday morning. They were later removed from the reservoir and are still to be formally identified. There was some speculation that the two men my be from the same family. Police have confirmed they believe that there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the incident. A force spokesman said: "Lothian and Borders Police launched an investigation to find two fisherman reported missing on Sunday, September 9, following a fishing trip in Gorebridge. Officers were assisted during the search by RAF Kinloss and the bodies of two men were recovered from Gladhouse Reservoir.  The area around the reservoir and boat houses was all but deserted yesterday. A man believed to have helped with the search said he did not wish to comment. Another man, who did not wish to give his name, said he had seen a police van earlier in the afternoon on the opposite side of the reservoir. He added that he had fished there several times before and had never heard of any previous incidents. A sign posted beside a jetty where five small boats were moored warned that the reservoir could be "hazardous" and advised those going out on the water to take precautions. Opened in 1879, Gladhouse is the first of a series of reservoirs built on the South Esk to increase the water supply to the Capital. Due to the heavy undergrowth around the loch, fishing can only be done by boat. The reservoir, formerly known as Moorfoot Loch, is leased to syndicates by land agents Smith Gore on behalf of Rosebery Estate. Smith Gore's Thomas Stanley said: "We were aware that an incident had taken place but the police had told us no more than that.It's quite a remote spot. There's no bank fishing at Gladhouse, only boat fishing. Gladhouse is also a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Protection Area, and is an important roosting site for pink-footed geese. A Scottish Water spokesperson said: "Our sympathies are with the families of these two men. Scottish Water will support the police in whatever way we can with their investigations.
