Local angler and a long standing DDAC member Bob Clark landed this 22lb Spring Salmon during an outing to the Mighty River Dee, taken on a Willie Gunn tube. Well done Bob !
News
Windy and cold up Loch Tarsan today (14th) if conditions prevail it will prove a difficult first day of the 2017 season tomorrow for the keen anglers who venture out.
One of our members is wanting to purchase a long shaft outboard engine, up to 4hp max, either 2/stroke or 4/stroke. If anyone has got one for sale please send an email to dunoonangling@gmail.com … Thanks.
A small printing error has been made on the new 2017 membership card, the “valid to” date should read “28 February 2018”
Another nice Winter Rainbow at 3lb+ caught earlier in January, this time by member Bill Rankin … well done Bill ! … Just proof of what’s still in the Reservoir so get the thick socks inside the waders and get up there. Still good sport to be had up the Bishops Glen !
A fine pair of excellent quality Winter Rainbows caught up the Reservoir recently by club member Bob Clark, he caught them with a weighted Cats Whisker on a floating line with a long leader. Just goes to show the fish are in there for the taking …. Well done Bob !

Several fish have been caught this week in the Loch Eck Competition but I think this beastie will take some beating, caught by Keith McKenzie a sea trout weighed in at 8lb’s and safely returned after a quick photo. Keith was fishing today with Bill Rankin who also caught. There is still a few days left to fish, with rain coming in for the weekend, could make a difference !
The Loch Eck Trophy starts this Saturday 8th and runs till the following Saturday 15th, weigh-in will be at 5pm at the boathouse each day. When you book your boat tell John at the Paint Shop you are fishing the competition.
The boats all came out the Tarsan today for the end of the brown trout season, a nice sunny day and a good attendance made life easier. One of the boats was in need of repair, so was taken to Tighnabruaich for the attention of the experts. Thanks to all who came along !
