  • A light dusting of snow today

    Up early to put the car in for a service. Lovely morning, with a dusting of snow. Lynn had a few chucks with an old rod, I had a coffee in the cafe! After 30 mins she joined me. No fish, but lovely views.

      Thanks, I love my new digital camera. No Lynn caught zilch, just practicing casting really(she needs it!) with a jelly worm.

          Mine is just a fujifilm.

          Camera phone is fine for close ups, but no use for scenic shots. I am just learning(slowly) how to use it. Got a long way to go to match some of the guys on here!

                      I think I'm better at photography after 3 months than I am at fishing after 35 years!

                      And I'm not very good at photography!

                        You've cracked the fishing this year with your cunning plan, teaching Lynn to cast.

                              It's actually 5 miles further down the coast from the big Tesco - at Gourock. I wouldn't fancy Cloch Caravan Site either, it's a bit of a dump!

                              However another 5 miles down the road is Wemyss Bay Caravan Site. That site is really nice with spectacular views over the Clyde. Fishing at the "Red Rocks" is just 5 minutes away. Mackerel, Wrasse and the odd Saithe can be caught there. Get the boat to Rothesay, Isle of Bute for Mackerel, Pollack and Sea Trout at dusk, although you must return any Sea Trout you catch.

                              Catch the Dunoon ferry and go to Blairemore for Mackerel and Dogfish. Tighnabruaich for same as Bute. Loch Etive is about a 2hr drive, I have never fished there, but plenty of info on here.

                              Don't misunderstand me, the fishing is poor compared to the North East. The species I mention can be caught, but other than Mackerel it can be a struggle.

                              Here is a link to the Park at Wemyss Bay.

                              Wemyss Bay Holiday Park, Renfrewshire, Scotland - Parkdean

                              The Sun have this park on their £15 holiday deal. Codes for the deal are land, pool, year, wish talk, meal, tone, hope, song and mare.

                              PM me for more info and if you are up when we are here, give us a shout and we can meet up for a wee shore session, but be prepared for the Lynn factor!
