Kayak Fishing - COD, MACKEREL, SQUID, HERRING, WHITING, BULL HUSS - Multi Species Fishing

Multi species fishing on this trip during the Christmas holiday period using both bait and lures. I have a great day catching six different species of fish Cod, Mackerel, Squid, Herring, Whiting, and Bull Huss. The Squid fishing was particularly good and a great way to spend the Christmas holiday out fishing and catching some fantastic fresh fish for the dinner table along with some catch and release. The video has a mix of live commentary and narration with some interaction with other anglers.

Scuba for Families dive in cold water in Oban with Basking Shark Scotland

Scuba for Families had a great day out with #BaskingSharkScotland who enabled a group of eight to dive, snorkel, kayak and paddle board Aon the same day. The diving took place at #AIRDNACUILE a gentle wall dive of kelp forests, dahlia anemones, sun starfish, urchins, common crabs and much more. The paddle boarding & snorkelling was located at #GylenCastle a ruined castle, or tower house, at the south end of the island of Kerrera in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, on a promontory overlooking the Firth of Lorne.

UK Sea Kayaking

I am in an outdoor education program at SUNY Plattsburgh called Expeditionary Studies. We took a three week sea kayaking trip to the UK and paddled around Pembrokeshire and Oban. Some of us were learning the fundamentals of paddling in an ocean environment while others were leaning how to lead groups.

Sea Kayaking Skye 2016 - Fladaigh Chuain

Well here it is, the final paddle of our fantastic Skye trip. Every year we hope and pray for a 'Big one' a trip like this, to a fantastic area to coincide with a decent spell of weather. In 2016 we really hit the jackpot with conditions just about as good as is possible in the UK. This trip will ALWAYS be one of the best, because of the fabulous Skye scenery, combined with THAT weather, it will be almost impossible to beat it. The Cornwall trip of 2013 is most certainly equal to it weather wise, it's all about the differing locations, so it's a choice between the clear turquoise waters of Cornwall, or the clear green of Skye? Or the spectacular coastline of Boscastle, Gwennap Head, Ralph's Cupboard, and Porthcurno, versus Macloed's Maidens, The Cuillins, Dunvegan Head, Spar Cave, and Neist Point? I can't decide, I think we need to do it ALL again, and see if we can decide next time?

Sea Kayaking in the Inner Hebrides - Multiday Expedition

We hope you enjoy this quick video of our amazing trip to the Inner Hebrides in July this year (2015). Originally we planned to complete an expedition from Castlebay to the most Southern island of Mingulay in the Outer Hebrides but due to ferry strikes we had to delay our trip until further notice.

Instead we visited the Isle of Skye, kayaking from a launch point just south Portree on a coastal road running between Loch Sligachan & Loch Ainort.

From there we kayaked to North Scalpay & made camp for the night.

In the morning with the tidal stream with us, we made our way across to the isle of Raasay & up the east coast to our second night of camping on the northern tip.

On day three we circumnavigated Rona & camped on the west coast of Raasay before returning to our launch the next day.

For a map of our route please check out the google maps link below:



Scotland is a naturally beautiful & wild place, if you have the opportunity please visit & post any pictures or videos. We are always considering the next trip so please post a reply if you have any suggestions.

This video & the whole trip wouldn't have been possible without the support of my awesome partner Steph, thanks for all the help, support & patience ps. sorry about any snoring.

In addition I would like to thank our good friends Ruth & Johnny who changed their arrangements at the last minute to accommodate us on both the trip there & back. We appreciated it more than you know & the first shower after four days in the outback was like heaven. We will see you soon no doubt....

I would like to make a special thanks to Google Earth which allowed me to design the fly through scene at the beginning & generally allowed us to plan this and many other trip.

If you would like any information on our trip & equipment or about sponsorship for our next expedition to the Outer Hebrides, please leave a comment & ill try to get back to you asap.

Thanks for watching
