done any good with the sea trout mate ?
Seem to be a ok run in the west coast/central Scotland this year i aint been out much myself but local lads been catching em doon our way ive seen a few jumps too on way to work n that and closest river to me isnt very big seems ok low as fuck but not at deaths door yet water wise but the weather keeps up this way who knows
Yeah its more about being on the water its relaxing the peace and quiet and all the other nature around dont hurt either nor does a few joints while doing it lol
Hey bro, no I've not had a great year for fishing.
... 
Cheers bud ,sure you will get on um !Hey bro, no I've not had a great year for fishing.
I've been traveling up and down the country just to wet a line we've zero rain in my catchment area this season.
I've had a couple of good nights and some not so good, sea trout are fantastic sport but getting all the moons aligned is quite rare warm nights are the best ime.
Yesterday morning on the news i seen some rivers/streams completely dry in the South and some reservoirs almost dry
Going on the conditions in the South I'm not surprised not a lot of fish are being caught, especially 116 acres with 20 fish in it lol.
Best of luck fishing the Wye mate a couple of big perch would take edge of a poor season
I can relate to that bud when I was a kid I fished the local quarry for perch with 20 other kids gawd every generation fished it, i had my own kids at it and I'd use it for practicing Spey casting lol.
The moonlight and darkness are fiercely debated in sea trout fishing lol.
Spent all last Sunday on a lake way to warm fish wern biting floating to the top even ignoring off the top .... horrible feeling watching them swim over and right by ya bait
Yeah cruising fish can do ya nut in mate love surface fishing had some good uns by super glueing a twiglet on the shank of size 8 hook sounds crazy but it works they don’t spook off them cause they just look like little twigs …..
Ive seen em run in daylight and low levels unlike salmon they run no bother ime its just when they wanna they will imo water temps matter your bang on i see em early mornings taking flies off the surface as well as brownies etc but more so when its been and still warm tbh ive fished for trout and that more than pike etc cos i stay so close to a river and thats whats in it we do get salmon obviously too and closer to the sea flounder and that ive never been interested in carp fishing as for sea fishing ive done a lil not alot tho i probably should more tho i stay like 30 mins from the beach lol most common fighting fish in the sea around our neck of the woods worth fishing for is dogfish ig they pretty common
It sounds like you live in a nice spot for fishing mate, very nice
Yeah its not too bad that way round here we also got a old quarry thats flooded and the locals stocked with pike and perch and stuff thats free of course as its abandoned and well its to rain tomorrow supposed to be according to the forecast doon here but idk its been warm n sunny as hell the last few days so we see if they get it right lolIt sounds like you live in a nice spot for fishing mate, very nice
I've picked up running sea trout during the day but the idea behind the night time venture is getting them holed up in a pool waiting for rain to move through the system... Or not i realise sea trout will make their way up the river in low conditions but some rain gets them switched on lol.
My local gets a run of salmon but only a few sea trout for some reason, in the last 10 years +/- I've landed a handful of sea trout from it compared to circa 100 salmon landed.
This year the season is hurting I've usually landed a few salmon by this time, this year I've not fished it at all.
This is one from my local it's a bonnie fish.

On the bright side we should see a nice run when it does eventually rain
