River Tay Outing

Willie Stewart Robert Eddie Mark and myself all headed to the river tay for our yearly outing. Eddie picking me up at 6.20am with Mark we head up the road. We arrived at the tay around 8.00 and waited for Willie Stewart and Robert to arrive then we headed to the site.

 Willie Stewart Robert and Eddie went out on the boats in the morning while Mark and I stay on the bank. It was not as cold as last year with the sun shining for most off the day.

It is a stunning view and place to see. About an hour and a half into the fishing I got stuck on a rock or twigs under the water but managed to get it out into what I thought was another snag but as I moved closer I felt the line move off and some head shaking fish on. Eddie was watching from the boat and asked if it was a fish replied aye. They headed over as Eddies boat had a landing net while Mark was a good bit up from me with our landing net. After a good fight with it running up the bank one way then back down taking line as it went. Glad I took my little bait runner as it made it easy to let the fish take line and well done to Eddie who landed it for me. Result a little 8lber.

Eddie was next into a fish which gave him a good fight too and once it was landed onto the boat it came in at 10lbs nice one mate. Don't have a pict as Stewart took the pict on the boat once I have one from Eddie I will put it on. After lunch we headed back out with 3 on the bank and the other 3 out on the boats.

 
 



 

The day ended with nothing else being caught but what a view to end the day.
