Dunlichity Cup Heat 5 Results
04:33 | 
Posted by
Mike Fitzgerald
There was another great turnout for the fifth heat of this year's Dunlichity Cup, with 17 anglers competing. It was also an opportunity to welcome back James Gray, 2014 Dunlichity Cup winner after a few years away.
A lot of fish were caught and taken in the first Peg, and the morning session continued to produce good catch numbers. A few continued to return fish and ended up not getting their full bag!
Jimmy Cooper continued his fine spell of form, winning his second heat in succession, with a bag of 4lb 2oz. Jamie MacGregor Snr continued his return to form with second place (4lb) with Jim Dick in third (3lb 13oz).

After 5 heats, Jimmy Cooper heads the table with 35 points, with Denis Howell second on 31 points and Jamie MacGregor third with 30 points. With a maximum of 30 points available to the potential winner over the final three heats, 14 anglers could still win the Cup!
The sixth heat of the Dunlichity Cup is on Saturday 16 October at 09.00.

2015 Dunlichity Cup Heat 1
19 competitors arrived to compete in the first heat of the 2015 Dunlichity Cup. Conditions were challenging, with low water temperatures slowing fish down.
The heat was won by last year's strong finisher, Jamie Macgregor Snr, with a two fish bag of 8lb 5oz (including a fish of 6lb 3oz).
Martin Haberfield led the heat for much of the day with a fine fish of 7lb and there was late drama when he caught a fish as the final peg finished, only to find that he had hooked a brown trout which had to be returned.
Liam Skinner took second place on countback, with Martin third.
Last year's winner, James Gray was fourth, and James Watson won the bottle. However, some noticeable blanks including 2014 Runner Up Graham Matheson and 2013 Champion, David Skinner.
All to play for in Heat 2 on Saturday 2 May.

Fishery Update - Sunday 23 February
As a result of the mild weather, we have restocked the fishery this week, the first time that we have stocked in February in the seven years that we have been here. Good bags have been caught in the past few days, with Magnus MacDonald and George Skinner being particularly successful.
The steady rain that we have had over the past 48 hours have left the banks quite wet and slippery - take care when walking around the lochans.
The electric sockets have been fixed in the Bothy, so the kettle and microwave are back in use.
