Trolling for Salmon - Loch Tay

Pink/Pearl Tomic Lure 4" one of the best lures on Tay system for Spring Salmon

If you fancy the chance to catch one of those elusive spring salmon. A real "Springer" why not give Loch Tay a troll.

You can hire a boat and permit from various places or arrange a trip with Grant Tigwell (fish n' trips) in his boat.

All you need is a decent sized rod or two of around 10 + feet, a reel fixed spool or multiplier that will hold around 150yd's 15lb+ monofilament line or braid, a few swivels, and some lures such as tobies, Rapala's, Tomic Lures and Kynochs are you have the chance of one of these Loch Tay Springer's - if you do hook one hold on tight as it might well be "over 20lbs in weight"



I normally use rods starboard (Right) and Port (left) and a rod out the back of the boat (poker rod) I tend to fish a Tomic on one side, Kynoch on the other side rod and a Salmo Toby on the poker rod.
