  • Another successful light rock fishing trip near to Loch Long on the West of Scotland, overall 12 fish were caught that were a mixture between Pollack and Coalfish, High tide seemed to be the most successful, as every time I casted it was literally like they were on a feeding frenzy! Was lovely to watch.

    My school chum of 50-odd years ago and I used to fish at Loch Long. We'd get the Oban bus from Clydebank. I can't tell you the joy these fishing trips meant to us. My chum was William Kennedy, last heard of in Drumchapel, Glasgow. I would give anything to be able to contact him. I have a basketful of apologies for what happened on 31 October, 1971. Wullie was my best friend. If anyone knows of his whereabouts, I would be mighty pleased to be put in contact with him. All the best

    Great video again. A really good session for you, well dond. I am a newcomer to area and fish that mark quite frequently. I have been getting coleys and pollock there but all small so far. Hopefully they will get a better stamp for me soon! Your videos are really informative. Thanks for sharing.

    • @theanglingfront
      @theanglingfront  Před rokem +1

      Hi mate, there should be some mackerel in Loch Long just now, May be a few weeks till they are in numbers however, although if your looking for a bit of diversity you should try some of the rock faces in Arrochar and catch some wrasse and Pollack, absolutely amazing fun and. They put up a great fight 😀

      Hi Andrew this is at the head of Loch Long, it’s a pretty decent area to fish in the right months, however all the rock marks along this part seem to throw up some really nice Pollock, usually at the end of May they seem to start being in numbers for this area

    Smashing meaning "pounding them on the rocks"
