Was recently asked if I would be willing to go to Shetland to do a few days work. I said YES!!!!!! After several changes of plan I ended up being there for 5 nights 3 of which I got to go exploring and fishing.
I had a lot of correspondence with a fellow forum member which helped immensely. I won't reveal who that was, I'm sure he will join in if he chooses.
In short if you ever get the opportunity go. I loved the place and the few people I spoke to were wonderfully laid back and easy going. It's a different pace of life up there, a pace I'd forgotten about and could do with getting back to!
It's stunningly beautiful.
I fished several lochs from big famous ones to little puddles that could hardly be called loch's at all
3 nights fishing, first one blanked, second one bagged up and third one got one tiddler. My best fish I had about midnight on a dry. Their was a hatch of olives and huge fish moving all around....exciting stuff
