Hi Big Man,
Howya doin? Was on the Loch last Tuesday night - Wednesday morning with Stevie Welsh. Our 4 best went 13lbs. When she's good she's very, very good; when she's bad, she's better than most.

You are not wrong there Rod, still the most rewarding or frustrating loch in the country depending on the day you've had.

Hopper68, looking forward to your report.

How ya doin Stan yer right when she's good she's the best. Managed 2 yesterday best around 2lb but real hard day,strong scaddy wind and bright sun.Wind started dropping around 7 fished till 10 but never really came to much.Back out today with Alex and hopefully she,s on song for today/tonight.
cheers Steve O,Neill
