Fishing Loch Etive | First 2023 Road Trip
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Our first road trip of 2023 sees us head up to Argyle and Bute in north west Scotland to fish the shores of stunning Loch Etive.
The weather finally broke and we found a spot to marvel at the truly spectacular scenery. Unfortunately nobody told the fish but it was one of those sessions where catching genuinely didn't matter.
Sit back and sample some of Scotland at its best!
Thanks for watching and don't forget to like and subscribe.
Until next time, tight lines and keep fishing!
Cheers, FCA.
Love loch etive because you never know what you're going to catch , scary deep too.
Absolutely Grant. Superb place to spend a day👌🏻
Stunning absolutely stunning. Sometimes it not about the fishing.
Exactly Kev, thanks very much🙏👍
From the shore,Etive usually fishes better at night.Round at the quarry you are straight into very deep water where huge casts aren't needed.Also,low tidal movement makes for poor fishing.4 metres or greater are usually better.Hope this helps.
Thanks Greg very much noted🙏 tight lines👍
Very good pendulums Sir, I learnt the technique from an ex boyfriend however I could never get distance like the blokes being very short doesn't help either. I'm off Bass fishing later today on very light gear. Beautiful area I fished Inverbervie many years ago when at St Andrews tightlines & thank you 😀👍
Thanks Christine, gad you mastered it👌🏻👌🏻 how you got some bass?
Thanks very much for watching and tight lines👍
Another enjoyable video looking forward to the next, could you tell me what the winter waterproof jackets are you and Gary wear thanks
Thanks Barrie much appreciated 🙏
Certainly, I wear Carhartt and Gary’s is a BassBoots, lovely bit of kit👍 hope that helps.
Proper angling as usual I’d much prefer to see proper angling with a blank than so called angler catch a 4oz whiting and say that’s saved blank great vid 🥸🐶🎣
Thanks Mick much appreciated. Tight Iines mate.
stunning looking place.
It really is!
Hi..thank you for another enjoyable video👍can I ask you what waders your using please?
Thanks Leon much appreciated mate! Certainly, their Vision Atom waders. Cheers
Serene, scenery, peace and solitude. What more could you ask for?
Still huge waves battering the South coast since the New year and gale force winds.
Just ONE DAY in your conditions would be heavenly 😦😦😦
Cheers Kerry, indeed, beautiful place to fish! Hope you get some more settled weather soon🤞
Wow what a beautiful place. So glad you posted this video as I've been hoping to come across a place where I can wild camp and fish in peace.
The place looks so sparsely populated, not even a dog walker in sight in the background. That's what I want.
Certainly going to have to head up there at some point. I just hope my piece of crap car with make it there and back.
Also beans and grated cheese. What a combination. So simple too. Don't know how I've never thought of it myself. Definitely going to give that a go. Might bury a slice of toast and poached egg underneath aswell. Yum yum.
Cheers Tony, glad it's of some use to you, hopefully you get a good trip over there, lovely part if the world. Aye the beans and cheese is strong, definitely get the toast and egg involved too! Cheers
I'd be happy to fish there with no bait and no hooks. Lovely vid.
Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching mate
What an amazing place, I pass there for work now and again, I'm going to try linnhe just by Onich, can't wait just hope it's s day like that, like you said fish is a bonus
Exactly Neil, hopefully you get stuck into them.
What an amazingly stunning place.🏞️🏔️🌄
In those surroundings I'd have been content with a jam stotty kyek and a bottle o watta.😃😃

Thanks Wayne glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching 👍
Tranquility at its finest, what a place mate.
Aye absolutely superb! Very very lucky with the light wind and no rain. Scenery was enough that session. Hope you're well.
Another beautiful production mate. Good work.
Cheers Stewart, very much appreciated mate.
Another enjoyable watch 🎣🎣😁
Thanks Wayne much appreciated mate.
Hi matey you ok, some cracking drone shots and what a beautiful place to fish. All the best from the humber GRIMSBY.
Cheers carl thanks very much mate.
Some cracking scenery 👌🏽 fishing isn't all about the fish!
Can I ask what mic setup you're using?
Cheers mate, exactly, certainly isn't! Absolutely, they're the wireless DJI's, hope that helps, tight lines.
Loch Etive is a very good fishing spot, Loch Leven (next Loch north of there) is also a very good fishing place, love going up there.
Cracking video David shame no fish but who needs it when it’s so tranquil 🎣🎣
Exactly Ian, that's all I was after for that trip, and very luckily got it. A fish would've been a bonus but not to worry. Hope all's well.
Cracking scenery and great video👍
Cheers Stuart

Lovely place ⛰️🏔️🏞️
Catching fish is good but where your fishing comes a close second👍
Exactly Steve, perfectly put! Cheers
Great video David, I haven't fished Etive for years. Beautiful place👍
Thanks very much Peter much appreciated as always. Tight lines mate
Stayed in a chalet just behind where you were fishing about a year and a bit ago, made a canny base, never fished that bay but fished further up towards the bridge, had the usuall spurs, dogs and tiny rays, also had 3 days of torrential rain, showed me that my waterproof gear wasnt very waterproof 😂
Cheers Stephen, Yes stunning part of the world. Hopefully you've got some new waterproofs! Cheers
Great video
Thanks very much really appreciate that! Tight lines!
I fish this place around 5 times a year, mostly in the kayaks but TFC boats do rentals for £80 a day (located in Taynuilt bay). Another great place to fish is Ballachulish on Loch leven, its about 40min drive from connel Bridge 👍
Thanks for the info and for watching 🙏👍
Looks amazing mate
Cheers mate, cracking place to fish.
Lovely scenery david cracking footage a was in lennys early on today and your mate called in said he works with you anyways good watch mate🎣👍🏻
Cheers mate thanks very much. Ah yeah that'll be Ray. Tight lines mate👍
Have you ever fished loch leven mate? If so did you hve much luck
Hi mate. I haven’t fished it no, I imagine it’s a lovely place to fish though👌🏻 thanks for watching and commenting.🙏
Cracking footage with the cameras, know the area pretty well and that particular mark is very poor and be lucky if your in 20 feet of water, wind sock would of been a better choice but is better marks further up 👍
Cheers Ryan. Aye once I started fishing I realised that I'd chosen the right spot for the scenery, but the wrong one for the fish. Never mind....
Gorgeous scenery man, worth the trip for that. At least it wasn't lashing snow in your face.😀
Cheers William, yeah that's all I was really after to be honest. Luckily the wind was kind to us. Tight lines mate.
Caught a 6lbs salmon on the mouth of the river near the jetty, I caught it on a cheap light ron thompson spinning rod and one of those thumb button reels that are enclosed. Tbh I think it came from the salmon farm nearby as I heard rumours of people diving and slashing the nets.
Lovely fish that all the same! Nice one!
Not all about the fishing David. The scenery more than makes up for it 👍
Exactly Peter, one of those places to marvel at. Tight lines mate.
nice video...
Thanks very much, much appreciated. Cheers and tight lines!
I fished there 40 years ago hinny and wasn't impressed, in fact I never had much luck on the West Coast, but the scenery was worth it, best I ever fished was the Clyde estuary, some good cod.
Cheers David. Yeah I bet there were some stonkers back in the day around the Clyde. Tight lines!
@@fullcircleangling Try off the shore between Ayr and Largs (especially towards Largs) I've had some great days.
@@davidoldboy5425 thanks david I will do. All the Best.
@@fullcircleangling If you're feeling flush go to one of the Islands, you never hear people mentioning them do you?
@@davidoldboy5425 guess not, good shout👍👍
Get yourself out in a boat you will never blank
@@andyfaulds yup 👍
