We fished the match at loch Etive and upon arriving at the mark it was already being fished. I have never seen so many people fishing Etive at this time of year. We fished 3 hours up with some bites and no hook ups until the tide turned

We headed to Port Logan with the grandson Brooklyn in tow for his first shore session. With a few lessons in how to dig lug from the shore. After we had got enough bait for the session we got set up. Brooklyn was first into the fish a small Turbot then a double shot off flounders. Shane was next with a small Turbot and Flounder. It was good to see brooklyn catching on his first time out so all in he had 5 flounders and 3 turbot for his tally. Shane had 2 flonders and 2 Turbot that went to his species hunt. well done brooklyn.

With the last few events not producing much we decided to fish out off port Patrick a board lucky dip 2. Heading out we went for some mackerel for the tope and bullhuss fishing.

Some nice sized mackerel were caught with a few whitting and grey gurnards and Shane had a nice sized launce.There were no tope about but some small bullhuss and doggies. Then onto some Pollack fishing and a few nice ones were caught. A first for me a Ballan wrasse about 3 pounds caught on a lure.
Plenty of fish caught and a good day had by everyone.
