Heading up to Loch Etive during the wk.Does any1 know if they have reached Etive yet as fresh bait always more appetising than frozen for bait?

I was out at sea from Macduff harbour on Sunday and first drift had us into plenty mackies. Some pretty descent sizes to. We didn't chase them to long as we were after ling and cod but still had plenty for everyone to take home.

Was a half descent first trip of the year for me. I missed out on the good sized cod but my mate got a few crackers. Plenty ling on the go but mostly on the small size. 5 species all together on the boat: cod, ling, mackies, 1 dab (i think) and one wee scorpion fish.

Out again in a few weeks time :)

Tried Greenock on Monday night. Not a sniff of a mack although lost a decent fish to my bait rod (prob a codling) just at the side. It was dark so I couldn't get a decent look at it. Seal stoating about as I packed up.
