It was a solid mid-week turnout for the Club, with 8 boats out for the day. We were also joined by a guest angler, David Hannaford, who fished with our new club secretary, Mel Mitchell. Congratulations to David on your first outing with the Club and great fishing to end with 7 fish. We hope…
Frandy, they reckon, sits about 1000 ft up into the Ochil Hills, but there had been a pleasant improvement in the weather and temperatures in the lead-up to our outing. The wind can be a bit inconsistent and complicated, given the surrounding hills, and the drifts can vary according to where you set up the…
I was delighted to be fishing with John Miller, one of the club’s elder statesmen and still enthusiastically joining in on our outings. Darrel had been speaking to a couple of his fishing chums during the week and reports were that Glencorse has been ”fishing its nuts off”, which is generally the kiss of death…
A big improvement in the weather of recent weeks. It was maybe a bit bright for the fishing, but it was very welcome to be out on a calm, sunny, spring-like day. Dougie Skedd and I started off on dries. We had decent early cloud cover and a sparse number of buzzers, but there was…

Outing cancelled due to Storm Kathleen.
Well, it has been a relatively slow start to the new season for the Club. The first observation on the way to the reservoir was just how much rain has fallen over the course of the past few weeks. We were greeted by torrents of water heading down the road and from the surrounding Pentlands. …
Was the proverbial game of two halves yesterday for Allan Everington and me. We started off in the Butts with what seemed like a glacial drift along towards Tod’s Hole. In hindsight (it’s a great thing) probably too close in to the Reeds. Most of the other boats were spread right across the Eastern…
Outing cancelled due to water quality.
