Sea fishing in the Oban area is one of the most exciting and varied spots in the UK. Home to record skate and huge pollack, cod, ling and conger, Argyll's coastline is longer than France's and offers fishing over wrecks, reefs, caves, open water and sea lochs. Add to this beautiful scenery of islands, tidal races (including the world's third largest whirlpool - the Corryvreckan), and wildlife such as whales, dolphins and sea eagles, and it makes for a must visit destination for novice or experienced anglers alike.
Shore vs Boat
Most species in the area can be caught from both shore and boat. There are some excellent shore marks such as Dunollie Point on the Ganavan Road just past Oban. Related Article Tags: , , , , , , ,
