Member John Easdale also pulled out a Rainbow Trout of approximately 7lbs as well.  He said “After many minutes of deliberation I decided to pack my rod, fire up my motorbike and buy a permit to fish the reservoir. I’m glad that I did because I landed this superbly fit 7lb fish. Unfortunately I had to take it because it swallowed the fly”

Well done John !

found in Loch Eck

Member Bill Rankin found this floating in Loch Eck yesterday, he said “squeezy lemon brigade have been up to their old tricks again” ! By all means fish the loch but please retreive your junk and take it home, tackle discarded like this can be fatal to wildlife.

John Easdale also commented, “at the reservoir my son and I must have picked up and disposed of 30+ metres of discarded leader. All this in the last 4 weeks. Please pick up your rubbish.”

River Ruel convener Bob Clark and Stevie Cooper have been busy these last few days, he reports that access has been improved on the stretch of the River Ruel upstream from the Otter Ferry road bridge. About 250 yards from the bridge two styles and a bridge over the ditch have been built, the first style is over a fence that runs parallel to the river abouy 20 yards from it, this leads to the bridge over a deep ditch with a style incorporated into it, the first style is not obvious from the river bank.
