Pike fishing , Balmaha.

Well unfortunately I never got going to loch etive this weekend so decided to head up to Balmaha for a bit of pike fishing. started off at the mouth of the Edndrick but was having no luck decided to go round to the pier and fished just to the right of it. Caught a nice pike, around 10-12lbs and a eel about 3lb. I didn't manage to get any pics as both fish were caught when loads of tourists were passing and they all stopped and were taking pictures. I was just concentrating on getting both fish back into water safely, and the weights are estimates judged by hand, and experience. The pike was a fair bit bigger and heavier than my previous personal best of 8lb. I am more chuffed by the eel which is a very hard to catch fish and a 3lb one is even better as the scottish eel record is 6lb-2oz. I will certainly be going back there again...soon.
