John Easdale had an excellent day up at Dunoon Reservoir recently and caught this nice plump rainbow trout, he said “it hit my Kate McLaren like a train” John also emphasised  he limits his catch to that which is necessary as his family love fresh trout !

Well done John and thanks for the photographs .. tight lines !

There was a good turn out today to help with the monthly stocking at Dunoon Reservoir, another load of quality fish put in the water with plenty over the 4 lbs mark.  Thanks to all the lads who turned up to help.
