As always mate a great day out. Always nice to get a new species and a very worthy PB💪🏻🎣I’m just as happy to have witnessed it👍

Many thanks Stephen, thanks for commenting and watching mate

No problem buddy, we’ll be back at it next year. Thanks for commenting and watching much appreciated👍🎣

Thanks buddy, we felt very fortunate to get the fish on film. It does make the experience so much better when the weather plays ball and an amazing place to fish.

Thanks Fred, as always thanks for watching👍tight lines if you get out to cast a line🎣

Thanks Gordon, team work makes the dream work and believe me, I was just as happy as Phil when that fish came aboard. Thanks for watching mate👍

Thanks G, yeah before we launched the boat, we spoke to an angler who just came in. He has fished Loch Awe for 30 years and only had 3 ferox. We thought we’d be up against it, but we just settled into enjoying the days fishing and chatting. Thankfully we were blessed very quickly, in terms of time we were expecting to put into this campaign. As always appreciate your comments buddy👍

Thanks Rab much appreciated mate🎣👍

Thank you for watching my friend👍

Thanks Stan, it was a great day out on the water, it’s always nice when you achieve something you have your mind set on. Yeah I’m a sucker for trying to improve existing bits and bobs, sometimes it works, if not try something different.

Thanks Jim, here’s hoping. we hope to do it again before the end of the season. Tight lines.

Cheers mate, thanks again for the advice buddy, tight lines mate🎣💪🏻

Thanks Ryan, we certainly felt very fortunate to get it so early in our ferox quest. Thanks for watching and commenting buddy. Tight lines

Thanks Berti and tight lines

Cheers mate, it’s something we will definitely do again as I’ve yet to land one🙏🏻🤞

Thanks for letting me know, I’m sure there are some monsters in Lomond but I’m not willing to pay the game fishing permit for there. Tight lines mate

We haven’t tried other tactics yet as we were still feeling our way into the whole ferox concept.?we may try different methods this year.?thanks for the information mate👍

To be fair, that is a big fish, I would just switch to dead bait and see if you can push it a little. A large lobworm might work, would be worth running a few rods to see what they fancy. . @@PiscatorUK-Fishing

Thanks for watching and commenting. It’s a fair point about the net, we both thought the same at the time👍

Cheers Robbie, yeah they give a good fight, the water has been a bit warmer of late. I imagine they will fight even harder when the water is cooler.

Hello Jimmy, I have considered trolling for Arctic Char as I have seen that video your talking about in the Lake District which is very interesting. That maybe one for the future as char is a species I like to target from the bank also. Many thanks for your comments mate👍

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing Great stuff. Your channel is brilliant. I really enjoy the films. Well done. Loch Doon has char and also some big Ferox but no-one targets them. I've had Char trailing Mepps or spoons.

@@jimmykirkland6249 many thanks Jimmy it’s great to get positive feedback on the channel. Loch Doon could be one for the future on the kayak, interesting that there is char in it too👍

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing They are there in good numbers. They are protected and must be returned. I'm sure the Ferox must target them .

Thanks Liam, we’ll probably give the ferox trout another bash before the season is out. I desperately want to get some sea fishing in soon tho. Thanks for watching mate

Hi mate and thanks for your comments very much appreciated. The boat belongs to Phil. The main engine is 20hp 4 stroke. He’s done a few videos now on his boat with some great content on the boats setup and equipment. On @anotherangleuk

@@PiscatorUK-Fishing cheers, subbed to his channel and thanks for clarifying the engine hp. All the best 👍

@@highlandfishingdiary8818 What year is your Coastliner? Mine was built in 1990.

@@anotherangleUK i need to check the plate on it but maybe yours is just better maintained and gel coat much shinier 😆 you’ve got it kitted out nice with the swivel seats. i think it’s maybe a bit earlier in the late 80s but can’t be much older! I bought it in 2007 from a retired fella in Rochester on the Thames Estuary and dragged it back to Skye. Had some great days out up here fishing and just going out to watch wildlife etc, used to do a few creels too and my lad really is into all that so hoping to do a bit more of that with the half dozen on so. I’m sure the engine is pre-90s it’s the older squarer mercury design, I got some manuals that are for the next model up, off Caley Marine that helped when I did the service on it a couple of yrs back, as it’s not easy getting it to anywhere to get it done. Been thinking of a new engine but you know what family life is like, it’s not always the priority 👍 i’ll check that date and catch up with your videos. All the best.

Lovely to see another Coastliner - particularly with a red hull! We have had ours for 32 years, and it wasn’t new when we bought it, so it’s a fair age. Hull number 214, so I’ll have to check with Orkney when it was actually built. As we are never likely to be using the boat at sea (we live about as far from the sea as you can get in Scotland), we don’t need things like navigation lights or VHF. So far all the the fishing has been on the local loch at the foot of our drive. We still have the original 2 stroke Mariner outboard that came with the boat, but I would really like to upgrade to a 4 stroke. 15 hp is quite adequate for our needs, and I think that one of the advantages of the 4 stroke over the 2 stroke is that it can purr along at low speeds. Anyway, I’m glad to have stumbled across your site, and will continue to follow your adventures. Tight lines, James.

Hi mate, we were trolling between 1.5 - 2 knots

Nice one, thanks a lot!@@PiscatorUK-Fishing
