Hi i am looking for a place to go pike fishing which isnt to far from Bo'ness which is beside Falkirk. there is a pond in my town but it only has fish around 2-4 pound mark just now any suggestion on good pike places?

there's loads of places jim. we have a little club thing going on here for guys from west lothian/central scotland, you would be more than welcome to come along with us on our piking days, check the post "west lothian/central scotland fishing group" or something like that and introduce yourself there.
