I visited loch awe 3 years ago with the intention of a weeks fishing, morning after arriving had a call to say death in the family and drove home again ! Never even unpacked the rods, it's my intention to get back up and try again though.

was that for ferox or just general fishing rabid ?

Feels and esox mate, I was intending going after both.

thats whats drawing me back ,the chance of other predators ,last trip out for them( few years now back had a 42" pike),no ferox but a hell of a bonus

I miss my pike fishing days, best was 36lb from grafham water on an open pike day, I used to be out every week, but it fell by the wayside with work, family and farming, keep itching to get back into it.

TIME !!!!! think we could all do with a double dose .cracking fish that used to do quite a lot of stockie fishing when we were in the midlands ,them pike get fed on the best of tackle in the trout fisheries !
