2020 Dunlichity Cup Heat 1
04:06 | 
Posted by
Mike Fitzgerald
At long last, we were able to hold our first competition since Lockdown, with 12 anglers competing in the first heat of this year's Dunlichity Cup. Everyone observed the Covid-19 protocols introduced to keep the fishery a safe environment for all.
A strong, swirling wind made conditions challenging but fortunately, the forecast rain held off. Fish were caught from the first five minutes of the first peg, but many competitors held off taking both fish. This led to come frantic casting during the last peg.
Liam Skinner took first prize with a two fish bag at 4lb 13oz, with Jamie MacGregor Snr second, and David Skinner third. In all, eight competitors collected their first points of the season.
The next heat is on Saturday 26 September at 09.00.

2017 Dunlichity Cup Heat 3
14 competitors attended Heat 3 of this year's Dunlichity Cup.
David Skinner quickly went into the lead, taking his two fish totalling 8lb 3oz within the first two pegs. As in the recent Troutmaster fish-off, this meant that he had to watch others close in on him in the remaining pegs.
League leader Gordon Haggart caught the largest fish of the day in Peg 3 but was unable to add to it.
Graham Matheson (6lb 0oz) and Ian Young (5lb 14oz) closed in on David, but a quiet two remaining pegs meant that he held onto first place.
After 3 Heats, Gordon Haggart remains in first place from George Skinner and Graham Matheson. Last year's winner and runner-up, Liam and Jamie still have everything to do!
Heat 4 is on Saturday 1 July.
