Loch Etive

Fishing out of Loch Etive on the 18th Nov

We headed up to Etive arriving at 9.00am and on board the charter boat were 2 friends of Kenny's all ready and waiting. Once on board we headed out to our fishing marks.

First drop produced nothing after about a hours fishing so up anchor and onto 2nd mark this produced a small spur and a thornie about 4lbs. Skipper say were off again 3rd time lucky. Steams for a little bit then drops the anchor. Tony was first into a good double figure spur but was lost at the side of the boat.

Then the fishing took off.













We had spurs from 6lbs to 12lbs 10oz. The 3 best spurs were caught by Iain a nice 10lb 2oz spur. Chris 9lb spur and Rod McMillan 12lb 10oz spur. 2 nice ling at 5lbs and 6lbs for Shane and Rod.
Thanks lads great day out.

A few hours fishing


Went down the local beach with my 2 sons Shane and Nico. After digging some bait my brother Willie decided to join us. 


 Shane's first cast produced a flounder 

Willies first cast. Willies rod snaps at the spigot.
 First time using it as it was a new rod.



Shane had five flounders for five casts Nico had 1 flounder and a dogfish. Our mate Will was fishing further down the beach and called us to see what we had. Will had 4 Coalies and then the weed drove us off the beach. A Pity the weed got to much to fish as I am sure there would have been more fish caught well that's fishing for you.
