Big Tay Salmon Release

Guided Pike fishing Trips On Loch Lomond


Having a guide for your first fishing trip on the big loch is well worth while, to track down the pike on lomond can take time. You will learn so much in one day that will set you up for your own trips out. Having a boat on the loch makes tracking the pike down easier as it allows you to cover more water and the many bays around the loch .  Check the other blog out www.stanleybeats.blogspot.co.uk And the Facebook Gordon Pollock Salmon Fishing River Tay
