Hello there,just new to the board.

Not strictly an Angling Ireland question,but not to far away.

Was just wondering of anyone has fishing the Isle of Arran. What baits,tackle,marks are the best.
All help greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Cheers Barry. Not 100% whereabouts we're staying yet,but think it'll more than likely be Lamlash. There any bait/tackle shops on the island? Was thinking bout taking the big rod,or would a bass/spin outfit cover most fishing?
