Yeah, just a bit.ok, so a good way to avoid midges during these summer months is to avoid walking along west coast but you are fine down SW Scotland on the Mull of Galloway
I was of course referring in general to people who come up to Scotland and then whinge about being eaten alive midges... turns out most have gone up to West Coast in and around Fort William, Ben Nevis, Skye, etc... the Mull of Galloway is further south than Carlisle isn't it?
I've been lucky when I've fished up the west coast though, never been bothered but I know lads who have gone to the same places a week after who've been eaten alive.
A lad I know works in the Galloway forest, sent me a video the other week of him in his cab of the machine he uses, and the outside was covered in them.Murray's Monument, Newton Stewart – Monuments & Ruins

Climbed this in June. Did ok till we started coming down. Midged to fuck. Little bastards
I don't know what it is, but I've fished all along that stretch, Kirkcudbright, Gatehouse of Fleet and all the way along the Mull of Galloway and never been bothered.
