Paul and Bob take the sleeper train to Scotland in a quest for ferox trout.

Paul and Bob catch the sleeper train to the Scottish Highlands to fish for ferox trout. Bob can’t resist the challenge to look for Nessie in the vast waters of Loch Ness.

Paul and Bob venture from London to the Scottish Highlands, taking a sleeper train overnight to their destination. They wake in the stunning vista of north west Scotland, where the pine forests and snow-topped mountains almost take their breath away.

They are on a quest to fish for ferox trout, which is a tall order for any angler. But they are in the right place, the River Garry, with a local guide to help them target their quarry.

Setting off in a boat, the pair fish long and hard, while also taking time to look for the Loch Ness monster.
