A wee reminder that this Saturday 6th May, is the second day of this years Tarsan Competition, starting at 12 noon till 6pm at the boathouse.
Alan Miller had a good day on Tarsan, caught 10 with 7 safely returned, excellent quality trout the loch is producing this season !
Last Sunday we had a successful day removing the old rails from under the mooring lines at Loch Eck boathouse, we had problems on several occasions where the rails damaged and severed lines, problem solved… they are oot ! Also gravel was put into the big dip before the boatshed which always fills knee deep with water after heavy periods of rain. Thanks to all who came down to lend a hand, and also to Stephen Landsburgh who operated the machine for us.
A very quiet morning on Loch Loskin, hardly a ripple in sight, but a perfect way to spend a Bank Holiday Monday nevertheless
Club member Allan Miller had a great day fishing on Loch Tarsan last Friday, caught seven with five safely returned, the two in the photo below just shows the quality of the trout that the loch is producing just now.
Visitors can purchase day tickets and also arrange boat hire from our agent the “Paint Shop” in Argyll St Dunoon.
Details and current prices for all of our waters can be found on the “Permit and Membership” tab on this website in a downloadable PDF file.
The day started off cloudy but cleared away in the afternoon and the loch was quite low and muddy in parts for fishing.
Results for the first Tarsan comp, 8/04/2017 are as follows:
Seven members came to the weigh in at 6pm in the boathouse and the top rod for the day was Lee Lindop with 10 fish at 7lbs 10ozs. Second was Keith Mackenzie with 10 fish at 6lbs 8ozs and third was Bill Rankin with 7 fish at 4lbs 9ozs. The heaviest fish of the day was caught by Lee at 1lbs 5ozs
Some of the members who fished on Day 1 of the Tarsan Competition, a glorious day but quite breezy at times, and some good catches were made … results to follow soon !
This Saturday (8th April) is the first day of the Tarsan Competition. Bank fishing only, it starts at 12 noon, with the weigh-in at the boathouse at 6pm. Forecast seems very nice, all members are welcome. Please come along and give the usual attenders something to think about, as the number of competitors has been dwindling in recent years.
Loch Tarsan produced this beautiful plump brownie last Saturday, caught by club member Allan Miller with a CDC pattern, its weight was around 2lb. Well done Allan.
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 !
