Hi!

[nic a char]

I'm a wild trout fisher who loves survival = minimal gear on forays + free fishing wherever possible.
Look forward to picking up tips and contributing to threads

Hello and welcome.

Hi, Welcome. This is a great forum for help and advice. I spend a lot of time on Islay and Jury where I try to fish for trout whenever I can.

Thank you all very much and, as they say in Scotland, "orrabest for 2015!"
Brynglas, what is the average size of your wild brownies on Islay/Jura? The scenery there on the GEOGRAPH website is truly amazing.

 

[Brynglas]

Hi, Yes, Islay is fantastic, Jura is as well. Some great remote lochs and coastline. Quite a few of the more accessible lochs are stocked and managed by the estates. Sizes probably average 2-3lb but I've heard talk of bigger. If you get a chance it's well worth a visit

Hi and welcome to BCUK from a fellow Scot and wild trout angler.

One my perfect scenarios in life involves a remote location, plenty free trout fishing and enough trees to keep me off the ground and comfy in my hammock...a simple man with even simpler needs!
