These four trout were all taken from Veyatie within an hour. The three smaller, hand held, ones were caught within 12 minutes of each other and although all from the same spot, behind the island on the north shore by a burn mouth, show distinct differences in markings. The larger fish was caught from the bank further west near the mouth of the lagoon. There was a real gale blowing up the loch, hence the sheltered anchorage behind the island and the casting from the bank. If you are fishing any of the Assynt lochs which are advertised as having a "polypropylene" boat, get the biggest engine available! The boats are unsinkable but have the hydrodynamics of a brick and with a draught of two or three inches can be blown miles down the loch before you realise what is happening. With this in mind, a drogue is essential in all but the lightest winds. Loch Veyatie- Trout 1Loch Veyatie- Trout 2Loch Veyatie- Trout 3Loch Veyatie- Trout 4
