Firing up nicely!

 With the settled weather of late the water is now over 10C and the action is picking up fast! I have been fairly busy with guiding the past couple of weeks and the results have been very satisfying. Moreover I havent needed to travel far as Staffin Bay has been the most productive area and right at my doorstep...

Most fish have fallen to natural coloured soft plastics and a couple have opted for the topwater as well!







Bandage!

Nice coalie.

Chunk...




More of this please! 




It's great seeing old and new faces coming over and I'm hoping this hot action continues, hopefully with some Summer species added to the mix.

Had another outing for Seatrout on the kayak but the area seemed devoid of them. Not sure if the green waters from the bloom played some part to this. I could see lots of sandeel but nothing preying on them...

Also a quick freshwater session in less than favorable conditions saw me catching a couple trout. I've yet to find the time for a proper fw kayak session but I'm sure I'll get round to it soon.



As I mentioned in the previous post, I got a new fishfinder but also a new transducer from Aliexpress for my old unit. It turns out that the cheapo transducer works fine and I just need to devise a better mount for it on the kayak.

Anyway plenty more fishing to be done!
