Jimmy Docherty Rover Challenge Trophy

Posted by dunoonangling on December 7, 2023
Posted in: Competitions, News. Leave a comment

The ethos and purpose of the Rover Trophy is to encourage and promote fishing across all of the club waters.

Primarily to motivate more members to fish our migratory fish waters, and ultimately to catch fish from all eight club waters during the current season.

It is decidedly not a competition, but rather a challenge, and its success or otherwise is to be gauged by how many members discover or rediscover the joy of catching wild fish in wild places.

The entry to the challenge is by a timely submission of the annual returns, i.e. by the 25th of November of the current season.

All members who make a return by that date will be considered for the trophy.

The criteria for the award is as stated โ€“ To catch at least one fish from as many, or, the ultimate goal, all of the clubsโ€™ waters. Using any method allowed, relative to that water.

Priority will be  given to the migratory fish waters, and consideration will also be given to numbers and weights of all fish caught (except those taken from our stocked trout waters, which still need to be fished).

In the event of multiple members equalling the waters fished successfully, if necessary, the Committee will make a final decision as to the successful recipient member.

The Pittman Competition ran from Sunday 17th September until Sunday 24th September.

 

Seventeen members fished the competition over a terrible week of wind and rain.  On Sunday 17th September, 3 members weighed in with 5 fish each.

 

On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, no members weighed in due to high winds and heavy rain.  On Friday 22nd September, 5 members fished from 7.30 am until the weigh-in at 5.00 pm at the car park.  None of the members had touched a fish.

 

Two skilled members fished the Reservoir on Saturday from dawn until 3.00 pm and did not touch a fish. 

 

No members weighed in on Sunday 24th due to high winds and rain again.

 

The results are as follows:

 

1st โ€“ David Halliday โ€“ 5 fish for total weight 10 lb 6 oz

2nd โ€“ Gordon Cardy โ€“ 5 fish for total weight 9 lb 14 oz

3rd โ€“ Ron Ganley โ€“ 5 fish for total weight 9 lb 12 oz

 

Heaviest fish โ€“ David Halliday โ€“ 2 lb 10 oz

 

Therefore David Halliday wins the Pittman Competition and also has the heaviest fish.  Well done David!
