This trip putting together was a nightmare , it was a work trip out with only 3 guests , but it ended up with 3 short and only myself and Andy from work .

Thank you for Dave , Mike and Mac who filled 3 places and Neilg who had to pullout last min but still paid , a free trip in march for ye bud .
We all arrived roughly the same time , setting up gear while we saw Colin steam up the Loch .
Everyone aboard we headed right down towards the glen etive area of the loch , Al "squid ink" hooked into a thornie and a whiting , not long after andy hooked into a spur , wee brian hooked into a spur then a whiting , while the rest of us stood about .



Wee brian was getting loads of bites reeling up he bitten off once , reeled up again same thing , 7 times he was bitten off . I managed to get a spur followed by a whiting .
I had a good bite reeled into it a fine 8lb spur on a 1/0 hook ,

while unhooking BBrian brung in a spur shouting a net a net ..... i am sure he was thinking about huluo from the kloset bar .......lol...lol.

We moved to another mark , wee brian caught a pouting , i managed to catch a few LSD as did a few of the others on the boat , tiny spurs kept coming aboard .


We headed to another mark where same as last whiting , tiny spurs , Al caught a poor cod with it's eyes blown out , Mac caught a cod and while unhooking it fell right back in a healthy 3-4 lber ...


So a good day out with some cracking craic , 7 species in total
Biggest spur - sultzer - beers
