I know mate😂 , was just annoyed at the time .👍

Is that loch l that’s all I’m going too say on here about the loch can you tell me if it’s ok too fish it I used too fish it when I was a boy about 30 odd years ago I used too catch monster perch out of there

Aww that’s annoying mate , where you shore fishing ?

Hopefully if you go there again you get one 🤞🤞

Cheers mate , yes it is a good fishery,plenty of big and small fish (easy enough to catch), biggest fish in the lake is just above 20lb 👍.

What are you fishing for mate

Brown trout and carp

For carp would suggest either going to Magiscroft or springwater which is in Ayr , for the trout either the white cart, Clyde in some parts or the black cart.

@@CastawayScotlandthanks buddy 👍

Some where else mate

Thanks mate

Yes, I 100% agree because sometimes, when I am not able to get out to the proper places, I just head down to the little stream and fish it. Glad you enjoyed the video👍👍👍

Hahaha, that would be mental

Glasgow

Not far from me,I’m just outside Ayr Love your videos 👍

Cheers for the suggestion mate , will try

Hahah it was

Shame man , loch Etive is a very deep water though so I suggest if you are boat fishing go to one of the fish farms around the loch or if you fish from shore hit the slightly less deep areas just before a drop off . Glad you enjoyed the video 🙌👍🎣

Hah thanks for watching mate , nah didn’t get anything yesterday unfortunately

I got one tho 🤣

@@CastawayScotland there is some nice perch and trout in there jat a bit iber fished if ur free one time al take u to a small river not far from there thats loaded withe trout garantee u plenty off fish

Mate can’t imagine what feels like 😂😂 must be mental , would love to catch one that big . Cheers though mate 🙌🙌

@@CastawayScotland it's hard getting a fish that size tho a waited two years to get that you will get a 20 if you keep at it bro tight lines 🐊🎣

Cheers mate tight lines

I would say starting off you don’t want to get into the realm of fancy complex rigs , just start off with method feeder fishing . Method feeder fishing is probably the most easy way to fish for carp,you are just putting bait on a method lead with your hookbait and chucking it out there. You can get method feeders mostly in any tackle shop just ask an employee how to set one up and they will show you the basics . Hope this helps 😁

@@CastawayScotland think of trying pike too

Glad you enjoyed, I do in fact use baitrunners the ones I used in the video were the shimano 4000 size baitrunners . My friend in the other hand uses a fix spool reel ,what he does is just loosens the drag a lot to allow it to pull out very easily and then tightens up ,just like what you said . Hope this helps 😁

@Castaway Scotland thank you for your reply. I'm just weighing up if I need to purchase baitrunners from start or wait off and use what have already and wait and see if going to get into deadbaiting more. Bought new pike lure setup and keen to use that more this year, too. You could just go crazy buying gear 🤣💷💷

Haha can’t be any more true 😂😂I have spent too much money on fishing gear. Do you fish for carp or anything else ?

@Castaway Scotland only took up pike fishing in late 2022. Before that, I just fished for trout/perch, tbh normally just bait fishing. But I started getting a bit bored with that. Adrenaline, when you get pike on, is something else 🎣

I know mate , I also don’t understand why ? Lrfing if just so fun , you can feel the true power of the fish unlike these big rods that take the fight out . Glad you enjoyed 😁👍

I know mate ,unfortunately I had already let go of the trout and then I realised it wasn’t recording 🤦‍♂️

Thanks mate yeah it was a cold day ,think I was lucky to catch that fish . Not been doing very good recently but not been able to get out much at all.

I know mate ,we do have life jackets but we forgot to bring them, we usually have them on. Thank you though👍

Glad I helped buddy 👍

Are you a member of the carp group bud

Yes , you can do over night sessions at the loch 👍

Thank you for the comment mate glad you enjoyed the video and happy new year to you. Yes I also am a member of the Scottish carp group

What is the biggest pike you have herd coming out there and much is it a year

From what I have heard and also on the Scottish carp group website there is maybe pike in there just under 20 and also I think it’s about £150 for a year member ship for over 16’s (not 100% sure)

Thanks mate 😁

Thank you my friend , glad you enjoyed the video and learned something 😁👍. Just a little fact of DeadBaiting in case you didn’t know is that here in the uk anyway , we usually target them in the winter due to the fact that the pike take longer to take the bait in . Because of this we don’t need to be super fussed about striking to early we can do it a little later (make sure ur not waiting too long). In the summer we don’t DeadBaiting because since the fish are not as litharge the take the bait in almost straight away and we have to struck very fast. Hope this little tip/fact helps you learn somthing😁.

@@CastawayScotland I know you're in the UK lol.. We still have some open water near the dam where I live. Warm up next week and I'll be out with these tips. Thanks and I'll get back to you on my results. Cheers! Rob
