Hey Mark - where were you fishing? Looks well north of Dunfermline...

 

[abeyptfc]

what size was ur pike?
hi andy hows it going? i was fishing up at loch earn.

It does if you can find the time for a quick Motorcycle ride aswell

If you can find room on the road to enjoy it!

Shh. don't tell anyone but the roads in Orkney are perfect for bikes and quite empty. More than three cars at a junction and it would make the radio


Once, or should I say if, I get the old Fz750 put back together I can sneak off to try for sea trout then a wee run and back home for a brew :thumb:

I wondered if it was Loch Tay. Not fished Loch earn before - they are nice trout.

This is one of the best carp I will have the pleasure of catching, she was put into the lake in 1968 (after speaking with the estate lake keeper and consulting his stocking book) as fry and went on to grow and grow and I caught in 2010 at just shy of 31lb. she is very rarely seen on the bank and this was the first time she has been out in around 3 years. I had her arriving at the lake at 6pm after work, setting up and catching her at 4.30am, quick photo shoot and back she went, was sitting back at my desk in London at 7.30am with the biggest grin in my face possible :) a true old warrior. Don't think I will ever beat this one.

Even Chris Yates would be proud of this one.

Off after work tomorrow night for 4 nights - cant wait :)

That mirror is from a very hush hush estate lake, had to pull some major strings to be able to get rods out over that place but it was worth it.

A small mouth I caught today before work. A bit too small to keep, but he fought pretty hard.
