off to etive tomorrow

[micky-quayle]

off to loch etive tomorrow planning on fishing through til friday morning. one of the few places within reasonable travelling distance i've never fished yet. weather looks spot on for the whole week so hopefully get some spurdogs and thornies, done my homework on the best marks to fish, just hope the fish want to come out to play. its all fish baits up there so taking plenty frozen macky, launce, blueys and a box of squid with me, although i should be able to catch fresh macky while up there. just roughing it in the car and bivvy to maximise fishing time, i'll not be able to sleep tonight, i'm like a kid waiting for xmas morning.
