The next Tarsan competition is on the 9th May, 12 noon to 6pm.
All competitors are requested to sign in on the white board in the boat shed, also giving an indication of area being fished. Good Luck
The second saturday competition went ahead with 5 competitors.
The weather, well, a bit too much sun and not much water to fish.
Bill Rankin won the second saturday with one fish weighing 3/4lb.
Three more saturdays left to win this 5 saturday competition.
Dear Members
I received a phone call from Paul Murdoch of Nith Valley Trout, our brown trout fish supplier informing me that the brown trout were due to come from Ireland on 18th April but this has been delayed until 28th April and the fish are a bit small (280 g). Paul has recommended that we do not take a stocking until the end of May when it is hoped that the fish will be around the 450 g (1 lb) mark. This means that the Lochan and the Tarsan will not be stocked until the end of May.
Best
Davy, Stocking Convenor
Five evening permits at £25 per book are now on sale at the Observer shop.

Despite the weather, the competition still went ahead, with five brave competitors turning up, unfortunately there was no fish weighed in. The next four competitions will be interesting as the competition is run over five saturdays with one saturday being dropped at final weigh in, and this one being that saturday.
