Walked up to this loch, using the path from the north end of Awe path takes you away from the loch not sure if there is a path from the main one to canisp but couldn't find it. Anyway strong wind and light rain made it difficult to fish, moved roung to halfway up the eastern shore, fishing with an olive bumble I landed 6 in an hour and a half all around the 6 inch size, had a double on the one cast big one about 10 in with the smaller one at 6in, great sport inspite of the weather conditions
Stayed in the Altnacealgach motel 13th -16th June 25 fished Borralan evryday for a couple of hours lots of small brownies along the roadside shore, all caught on olive Bumble, missed loads around the small island at the northern end.
Fished the shoreline west of the castle in the afternoon Saturday 14th caught 6 small brownies on an olive bumble. Lost decent sized fish at he bay by the castle
My two sons and I fished Cam on June 5th. It's been over ten years since I last fished there so I was looking forward to it. We were not disappointed and only got soaked twice but had 15 fish between us up to a pound and a half. We would have had more if not distracted by the mountains and the atmosphere of the place. Just being there in a boat is good for the soul.
Fishing was fun, but all I caught were small fish. Spent the day casting along the far bank from the road, hoping for a bigger catch. Disappointing to find yet another Scottish loch teeming with tiny shrimp.
Urigil used to be part of AAG but hasn't been for a while. It is part of the Oykel Bridge Hotel fishing (but I think that is only for residents) and Ledmore estate also have a boat I believe. I understand that Ledmore has recently changed hands and it is not yet known how they will organise their fishing, but we'll update here if we hear anything!
I used to fish veiatie cam and urigil about 12/15 years ago, and I'm coming back up soon with my sons and will be looking to fish cam. Can you tell me if permits are bought online, and most importantly is there still a wee cafe with just four tables on left side of harbour road, where you could get a cooked breakfast at 7.30 on a Saturday morning?.
had a go on the boat at east end of the loch. Fished up to the castle and over to the south side. Not a lot of bites, but boated a hard fighting dark trout of around 1.5lb , and finished with a 6oz fish. Cracking day. Both fish safely returned.
