Welcome! Steve
welcome! ah, another place for the bucket list! but this time more for the scotch than the fishing!!!!!!
Welcome Alexander. Where in Scotland are you from? We went there for my honeymoon and went as far north as the Isle of Skye. What a country. Beautiful, lean air, and the kippers... I wish I drank Scotch back then.
Welcome.

might be an invasive species...don't quote me but I'm sure I read somewhere that there was in England. I'm a sea fisher so my knowledge of freshwater is somewhat limited

Thank you.
Welcome from the West Coast of Canada ! I never met a fisherman from Scotland that I didn't like, mostly because they like the single malt like me. You will learn tons here.

Alexander,
Welcome from the other end of the country, I am down in Cornwall.

Welcome, I'll be visiting Scotland this year. Never been yet but looking forward to the trip and getting in some fishing. I might have to ask you to help me out!
Welcome to the forum. My first wife was from Scotland, her family roots were from Ayr but her father owned a hotel in St. Andrews. $$$. Been over at least a half dozen times but it has been awhile. Sure love some Arbroath Smokies! ;D
Welcome from Salem Virginia ;D
Welcome Alexander, enjoy your stay!

Hi Alex, from sunny Western Australia, cheers Don.
Hi wee man I am a bit farther south - Orsett, southern Engaland. Robertson clan in the lineage. Many happy holidays in the highlands, some of them sunny and dry ;D
Still not caught a Scottish salmon - do they still exist ;)
Welcome Alexander.....Bill, California USA

Oh yes. They were on the breakfast menu at my Father in laws hotel. I either had black pudding or Smokies every morning as they aren't common food items in the States. I also like Finnan Haddie especially prepared in a bowl of Cullen skink on a cool night. I am sure that will get some folks googling. ;Db

You have good taste Scott :)
