Although Heat 5 of this year's Dunlichity Cup fished well, we have decided to delay the final three heats in order to give the water levels in the Lochans an opportunity to replenish.
The revised dates are as follows:
Heat 6 - Saturday 22 September
Heat 7 - Saturday 13 October
Heat 8 - Saturday 3 November

After two heats where fishing was really hard, it was great to see the Lochans fishing well for this heat.
Everyone caught fish and had at least one fish on the board by the end of the second peg. Indeed all but one had their full bag by the end of the heat.
Competition leader Jamie Macgregor Snr caught the most fish during the day (double figures) but the big fish were caught by Graham Matheson (4lb 9oz, 3lb 6oz), with Ian Young (3lb 7oz), George Ritchie (3lb 3oz) and Gordon Haggart (3lb 1oz) also catching good fish. Graham, Ian and George were 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively. Gordon took the bottle.
The leader board has now got tighter at the top with three heats to go.
The dates for the next 3 heats have now changed. See the next blog for further information.

The 15 competitors who attended Heat 4 of this year's Dunlichity Cup were met by awful conditions - low water, warm water, bright sunlight and unresponsive fish!
In the pre-competition briefing, it was mentioned that given the conditions, fish would be scarce - how true that was. By the end of the heat, only 7 fish had been taken (although a few others were returned - big mistake!).
George Ritchie won the bottle for the biggest fish outside of the top three with a fish that was lighter than the bottle's contents!
Winner was David Skinner, with two of the three biggest fish caught during the heat. George Skinner was second and Liam Skinner rounded off a Skinner 1-2-3.
Absent Jamie Macgregor Snr remains in the lead overall but with others closing in, there is everything to play for!
The next heat of the Dunlichity Cup is on Saturday 9 August at 09.00.
