2024 Dunlichity Cup Heat 5 Results

12 anglers attended Heat 5 of the 2024 Dunlichity Cup.  The weather was kind to us, and, as forecast,  the rain arrived after the heat was completed.

Lots of fish were showing but were proving difficult to catch.  Fish were caught at every session, with 5 anglers recording three fish.

Winner of the heat was Jimmy Cooper, who also recorded the longest fish and a cumulative length of 53".  Second, with 51" was Jamie McGregor Snr and third was Jim Dick, with 50".

With two heats remaining, Jim Dick has consolidated his position at the top of the table.  Jim can win the league with a heat to go if he records 5 or more points in Heat 5.  Four other competitors can still win the league, with many more in with a chance of an end-of-season prize.

The next heat is on Saturday 5 October at 09.00.  Weather forecast looks good!
