A friend of mine took this image, looking down at nearly the whole length of Loch Eck, taken from the hill up behind the Coylett Inn. Wont be that long till the boats are in the water here, roll on the Summer (if we get one that is)

Members are reminded that from now on, when booking a boat for either Loch Tarsan or Loch Eck, you must specify which type of boat you require, either long shaft or short shaft ! This saves disappointment when arriving at the water and your boat is being used by others.
Thanks for your help in this matter.
Help is required for the boats in on 6th March at 10am for Loch Tarsan and also 13th March at 10am for Loch Loskin it would be nice to see some new faces there apart from the usual lads who turn out religiously every time ! The job wont take long, and remember many hands make light work.
I thought this was worth a mention on the website seeing DDAC was involved with it, please click on the link below to read all about it.
A new and updated version of the DDAC Manual as well as Competition Rules, Permit Charges, Catch Limits and Guidance Notes in PDF format are available for viewing here, and also on the “PDF Forms” and “Permits and Membership” tabs on this website

A cold and tranquil Loch Tarsan this morning, but look on the bright side, it’s only eight weeks till the start of the brown trout season, so get your rods and reels all ready for the big event …. It’s going to be a good year !
