Some LRF action at least!
I am getting sick of Facebook – every time I go on it all I read about is Kelvinators hauling in huge trout from the Kelvin on the River Kelvin Fishers page. I am currently in a Holiday Cottage that is probably as far down the Clyde as on can possibly go without actually being…
No fish all year!
Last night I realised that I had not actually caught a fish all year. You read that correct = all f*cking year! We are a day away from June and I was damn near on my longest blank of the last 25 years. This is due to the fact that due to a rather nasty…
Highland Blanks
Headed past the fault line being chased by the weather. First option was washed out and in a field so continued on. Finally settled with the beach casters – we tried to buy some extra bait in a supermarket but never found any! We thought about tubing a loch on the way back however a…

Quick!
I managed a quick session down at the breakwater – I met a chap (Glen) who fishes with the legendary Frenchman Nicholas from the Glasgow Angling Centre and we exchanged some info. A chap walked past me and headed to the furthest away point after Mackerel while I hung about at the rocks. I was…
Grab it when you can – in other words missed opportunities turn out all right in the end.
Last night I had a chance to go after trout on the Kelvin however totally blew it. I had just helped my wife from the Dentist (afterwards she had fainted) when I realised I suddenly found myself with a couple of hours spare and my old stomping grounds of the Kelvin with no doubt plenty of…
What is this?
I was fishing using a wee jig off a breakwater when I again caught a fish – this one was even bigger than the other one. I had cast out and twitched it back , the fish had slammed into it and put a fair old bend in my rod. I sent the picture to…
