Pollock (Pollack) Fishing South West Scotland

To begin with, if you are interested in a thrilling angling experience mixed with breathtaking scenery, read on. Arguably, this is one of the best sea fishing trips you can experience in Scotland. In fact, the waters around Galloway are teeming with a variety of fish species making it a hotspot for anglers. Accordingly you can expect to catch,  Pollack (Pollock), Wrasse, Sea Bass, Mackerel, Skate, Dogfish, and Tope.

Occasionally if the conditions are right, we can target Skate. Although the fish in the album below was over 175lb in weight, it was caught on light tackle. Moreover, you can choose between, fly fishing, spin casting or a boat rod and multiplier. Often we can catch small Mackerel and target some Sea Bass by using live bait.

Furthermore, the equipment supplied is not typical to the pleasure boat trips. On the contrary our tackle is premium quality,  lovingly maintained, and at the cutting edge of current sea fishing techniques. .

Located 3.5 hours south of Edinburgh and Glasgow, and 1.5 hours from Prestwick airport, this corner of Scotland is called Galloway and offers some of the best sea fishing in Europe. Typically, you are fishing from a boat close to the shore in 25ft -40ft of water, you can enjoy fly fishing or spinning with a lure, the action is fast and furious. When targeting Tope, we head into deeper water and utilise the tide to target this shark species.
