This week we decided to go ( camping )
We went in the afternoon , kayak fished for a while .
We certainly had problem connecting with fish
Stay tuned , we are staying here tonight
let's prepare the camp then
the tarpaulin is essential in Scotland
We brought our own wood . Trees provide oxygen for us all and don't need to be cut .
this land near water is infested with midges . Midges are tiny insect and they do bite . Wear a buff or insect repellant .
Fire are not easy to light in Scotland , everything is wet .
Tam is doing well , he is a great fire starter .
first beer , starting to get thirsty
Got all my vegetable ready
And those juicy king prawns
Dinner is ready , I used ginger , garlic and chilli flakes
Tam's enjoying it
This lonely swan is saying hello , probably looking for some free food .
After 2 beers
that is why you take a tarpaulin with you
Some wine as well
fire is belting
Tam keep adding some wood .
The bar is now open
Iru brew with those miniature
This is Iru brew made in Scotland
Cheers
the fire is going well
music is playing
The tent . Wild camping is not always permitted in Scotland .
Good morning , this was quite a short night
We are still alive
we are going fishing soon after breakfast
Tam is working so hard , the man is a legend .
this is milky coffee , just heat it up
breakfast is getting made , oh yes
hot coffee , magic .
Bacon and roll , nice
here come Glen , we call him the pike hammer
that's rain water , water is priceless , I wish I could sell water .
the little statue , there is a whole story attached to this little boy
guess who is catching the first pike
Glen the pike hammer
A baby jack pike , couple of years old maybe
my turn now
this is the slouch minnow from Rabala
one single hook is enough , less damage to the fish
by law every coarse fish must be returned to the loch as quick as possible
This place is open and windy
Glen is throwing the frog
this is a no fishing zone . there is a big property at the back and people privacy must be protected . I wish I owned that house
plenty space on Loch Lomond , it's only 24 miles long
oh look there is a sea gull nesting on the yacht . Not every boat are getting used
fish number 2
this pike turned and lost my soft lure totally locking it's jaw
No damage tho
quick release as usual .
replacing the lost shad , this golden colour could work
Midday , this time toasted cheese
this is Glen own made honey comb
it's always interesting listening to Glen about bees and his own honey . Respect
A+ food
pike number 3 now
Another quick release , I touched the leader , pike number 3
slouch minnow from Rabala
smashed it
it's now game over , thanks for watching , see you all next week
