Hi Jim,

Yes indeed SWFF & Pike Fly-fishing and lots of Float Tubing.......Oh and lots of 3wt river fishing including spider work and dry fly and the Duo and perhaps I can get back to some Sea-Trouting....and already looking forward to getting the double hander back out :roll   I think that's it!

I'm off to Menteith early in the year to fish another Pike trial with the PFFA, hopefully a few more of the big girls will come out.

Also hoping to do a bit of Czech nymphing over the winter..if Ben ever remembers to bring in the rod for me! ;)

Lastly I hope to get a Bass on the fly...have a new venue to try...so that should be fun!

Hi Jim,
          Next year .... Ok.

Summertime pike are fun . How's about a Haddo Tubers outing to Venacher , (or a place I know in the Heelans) .

More SWWF than last year ,if we get a summer - Bass,  sea trout , mackies and pollack , not forgetting the 6inch podleys... !

More big rod stuff planned when the salmon beats reduce their prices due to the recession (???) . Mmmmm.

America beckons still . Striped bass in Mass. might now be rainbows and salmon in Michigan now that hurricane son will re-locate there in January . Carp on the fly in Michigan looks fun too.

And all of the usual stuff too hopefully .

Soo much fishing to do and so little time to do it !!

Paul.

PS: you have a PM.

Hmmm, maybe make sure I get a few days off and get out on the river, Lintrathen again and a hill loch or two ...... there is much to explore and much to revisit :wink

Great topic Jim
Best wishes

I'm counting on it :roll, a bit of strongarm tactics perhaps, or maybe just the lure of a bonny wee brownie or two. I promise to pick beats with no trees :wink

Good topic..got me thinking...

1.  Continue exploring the Don for nice brownies....try monymusk I think....
2.  The Dee at Parkhill once or twice...
3.  Summer holiday somewhere for nice river brown trout.....perhaps spain, france, any ideas?

That should keep me busy enough.

Cheers,

Steven

I will continue to trip along to the Earn to get me a salmon as I didn't manage one this year.
Continue with the jungle fishing on the Fife Eden although at the backend it was more like combat fishing.
I want to try and get back up on the Don in the spring for some trout fishing and I will try and get a day on the Cowie for a bit of nostalgia and some sea-trout.
