I was casting a sand eel savage gear 19g off of the rocks down from the salmon Bothy and cause a decent size sea trout!!! It had some sea lice so decided to help the little guy out. Absolutley stoked.

Nice! Those Savage gear lures seem to do well - my cousin's boy caught a bass from Clashnessie using a shad one. Must get some!

Have fished around the rocks to the north of the bay several times in the past and have caught plenty of pollock. Last June I induced a follow from the biggest pollock I have ever set eyes on right under my feet it came up out of 20 feet of water but sadly decided not to bother with my Bridun Lance! Also caught pollock in the 2-3lb range from rock ledges to the south of the bay at low water.
