The first outing of the year saw three idiots, sorry anglers, brave the elements to catch and release 16 fish for 32lb.
It was definitely a '6 layers day' and only the gale force wind stopped the loch from freezing over. I wonder why we
were the only 3 people fishing on the loch that day!
Sandy Wilson caught the first fish of the season, and also probably the best fish of the day (at approx. 5lb), but it
was Steve Argo who took the sweeper for the most fish of the day - eight. And he didn't even have to fish from his usual beginners platform once.

Another wintery day, but still not bad enough to stop the 6 anglers trying to win the first trophy of the year.
There was even a rare appearance by Graeme Third! We later found out that there should have even
been one more angler but old age strikes again and Sandy Buchan turned up the previous day. With prizes (kindly donated by last years winner - Joe Campbell)
for the heaviest fish, heaviest bag and most fish caught it looked like being an exciting day. Its a pity the fish didn't want to play and, until the last hour,
it looked like Steve Argo was going to be the only angler to catch fish. There were 4 fish for the day and Steve A took the Trophy, and sweeper, for the heaviset fish
weighing in at 6lb. Steve also had the second heaviest fish, at 4lb, and the total for the day was 15lb 2oz.
