Peter,Hiya mate..... ...have a look here...

 

 

and at the Fart, the fishing is pretty good at the big car park, which is about ..oh....mibbes 30 secs walk from the High St !!! :)

 

G'on g'on g'on!! Explain how the name came about Norrie????

It is to be observed that 'angling' is the name given to fishing by people who can't fish.

If GOD had NOT meant us to go fishing, WHY did he give us arms then??

(If you can't help out someone in need then don't bother my old Dad always said! My grandma put it a LITTLE more, well different! It's like peeing yourself in a black pair of pants she said! It gives you a LOVELY warm feeling but no-one really notices!))

LOL, Not as obscene as you might think Chris.....its just the Highland accent, or Brogue....when a Highlander says Fort William, it sounds like they are saying Fart William...and, when they say, a cup of tea, it comes out as a CAP of tea,,...:):) its a smashing accent...:):) there are loads of wee foibles like that ....

In sleep every dog dreams of food,and I, a fisherman,dream of fish..

New development chaps, the missus has decided 6hrs travel or so is not what she wants, so Oban & fart william is now out of the picture. However, those links you posted Norrie have convinced me & we're going to look at that for a longer holiday :)

 

So where now?.... well she has a relative that lives in Berwick, so that is now in the running.

 

The question is, has anybody fished the harbour at Berwick & is it any good?

Peter.

 

The loose lines gone..STRIKE.

Hi Peter, Never fished the harbour at Berwick, but have been there lots of times, and seen guys fishing, if its anything like Eyemouth, and Dunbar, you wont go far wrong......AND plenty shops too.....its a lovely wee town.... B) A very good selection if you ask me mate...

 

 

Also, When you decide on when, and where in the Norf you are going, give me a shout....we'll see about getting you out on the boat...if at all possible...;):)

Cheers Norrie, very good of you mate, when she does make her decisions I will most certainly give you a shout. Last time I was on a boat in that area, I was on a aquastar owned by a chap called Dick peebles working out of Drumore. Cracking sport with Thornbacks, Spurdogs, Bull huss, pollack etc.

I remember first time out, I fished our local inshore Cod style with the multiplier spool locked up....big mistake! I very lightly hooked a shark ( the skipper reckoned probably a Porbeagle) the hook sooned pulled out, but not before it dragged the rod sharply down chipping my elbow on the side of the boat leaving it painful for the rest of the holiday. When I retrieved the tackle, the Mackerel lask was still on with a perfect set of disturbingly big 'V' teeth marks down it :o

 

Didn't make that mistake again :rolleyes:

Peter.
