Fishing for Pike near Aberdeen

**m4rk** · 20-03-2008, 19:04

Hi All

Just looking for some good pike fishing places near Aberdeen, i have tried Aboyne Loch(caught few small ones) and Loch of Skene (no bites), so just wondering if anyone can recommend somewhere i can go that holds pike, i have asked around but the advice i get is to 'ask around'!?!.

Sorry if this topic has been covered before and thanks in advance for any replys.

Welcome to the SEA fishing site mark.
I'm not sure if it has been covered before as we usually talk about saltwater swimming fish but there is a few on here from your area that might have the answer

there is also pike in clatto [dundee] up to 14lb and other course fish good luck finding them though toughest venue i have ever fished but if you hit the right sopt on the right day you will catch some nice fish.

Hi M4RK

Aboyne loch can be good, yes there are a lot of small ones but also some bigger ones too I have had them to 24 1/2 lb also plenty of other coarse fishing.
After April 1st Loch Kinnord just past Dinnet is open for fishing, have had a lot of double figure fish there up to 31lb but you have to put in the time and know where to go, though most places will produce.

Abyone loch m8 some corkers of pike caught out of there last year think thats one of your best bets plenty of silvers in their also inc. some nice big Ide

Was to loch aboyne last week, 4 of us was fishing for pike.My mate had 1 run but was to late to get to his rod ,which resulted in losing the fish.
Was speaking to a local angler and he said there are hardly any fish there now as some pollish guys have poached the loch and eating every fish they caught.Boy caught them once and they had killed 15 pike to EAT.
The loch is being took over or managed by some one else in a couple of weeks time.

Thanks for all the replies....i also spoke to a local angler from Aboyne who advised me that it was near empty, he said it gets stocked before the holiday season for all the caravaners etc. I have tried Loch Kinnord but walked more than i fished and got COVERED in ticks, they were all over me.....not a nice experience!

Thanks once again.
