Carsethorn SW Scotland

Finally finished for Christmas today but once again not wishing to join the motorway madness I stopped off for a session, this time at Carsethorn not far from Dumfries which was suggested to me by Paul and Dee, thanks guys

This place is a gem for a lazy flatty hunter such as myself
Its a deep channel at the mouth of the river Nith and a stones throw away from where the car was parked

I only had frozen Lug for bait so I was expecting to be ravaged by the estuary crabs but luckily there were none about

I fished for the first 3 hrs of the flood and had 3 Dabs which was quite a relief after my last few sessions up North

I was fishing next to the remains of an old pier which once took many Scots to America, Canada and Australia to escape the harsh life they had here  















Its was bitterly cold on the water front but I was well wrapped up and quite sheltered from the winds that have been battering Scotland today and with my catch I was a happy logger indeed

Hooray Actual fish in one of your reports!!!Well done

More luck than judgement

As place names go it does sound like a pain in the bum though!

Lucky it's near the C

Sounds like you will need a dog team when you go back.
Don't forget your Auger to drill holes in the ice.

Nice little session and report Dave. Well in there.
