NID 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi Catcher plenty of bays at loch Awe for pike,depending where your based. If you go to the bay at Kilchurn Castle "Where the boys drowned sadly",have a word with Alan Gray the shepherd he will be around looking for permits. Ask him how the bays been fishing,as you know with the pike its if they are in the bay after the Roach and Perch you will do well,let us know how you do here's a couple photo's of the bay,atb NID.

Yep it can be like that but when the pike are there you can bag a few 20's,that's if the otters and ospreys leave your bait long enough ,atb NID. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi anythingoes,aye auld Alan he can tell you a story or two,remember he came down to us to get permit money carrying TWO PAIRS OF BOOTS. Seemingly he approached two fishermen for permit money and the guys were making out they were foreigner's and could'nt understand what he was saying,so he waited till they went into their tents and ran away with their boots. Said he got the permit money next morning no bother in exchange for two pair of boots. ps.he said they spoke perfect English atb NID. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
