Dunlichity Cup Heat 7 Results

Fishing conditions remained good for the 7th heat of this year's Dunlichity Cup.

Jim Dick set the pace with a 2lb 13oz fish in the first peg, but as we reach the end of this year's competition, tactics began to play a bigger role in the contest. with only four anglers taking their two fish.

Jim eventually took first place, with Denis Howell second and Jamie MacGregor Junior just edging out Jamie MacGregor Senior by one ounce for third place!

Jamie MacGregor Senior remains at the top of the Leader board, with Denis Howell now second and Graham Matheson and Jimmy Cooper tied for third.


The eighth and final heat of this year's competition is on Saturday 13 November at 09.00.  With any one of four can still win the Cup and with prizes for lower placed competitors, there is still everything to play for!

2019 Dunlichity Cup Heat 2

14 competitors arrived to find cold and snowy conditions.  It was good to see James Watson attend for the first time in many heats.

As usual, a lot of fish were caught in the early pegs, with the action slowing down in the afternoon, leaving a lot of people with only one fish bags.

George Ritchie and first timer Denis Howell both secured 10 points with bags of 5lb 5oz each.  Denis took the first prize on the basis of the biggest fish (3lb 1oz compared with George's 3lb 0oz!).  Jamie Macgregor Snr was third with 4lb 15oz.  Jimmy Cooper was the only other competitor to take two fish.  Gordon Haggart won the bottle for a fish of 3lb 12oz.

After two heats, things are close at the top of the leader board with Jamie Macgregor Snr on 15 points, Gordon Haggart on 12 points and 5 anglers on 10 points.





The next heat is on Saturday 1 June at 09.00

2018 Dunlichity Cup - Heat 2 Results

17 competitors arrived on Saturday 12 May for the second heat of the Dunlichity Cup.  These  included newcomers Dave Falkingham, Jimmy Cooper and Matt Thompson.

With bright conditions and the competition occurring towards the end of a stocking cycle, it was anticipated that going would be hard - and so it was!  Unusually, more fish were caught in the afternoon session than in the morning.

Jamie Macgregor Senior caught the biggest fish of the day at 5lb 6oz and went on to win the heat, with Liam Skinner second and James Gray third.  George Skinner won the bottle for the largest fish outside of the top 3.

After two heats, Jamie's winning streak continues, having won the first two heats and the 2017 Troutmaster Fish Off.  Previous winner James Gray is in second place.

The next heat of the 2018 Dunlichity Cup is on Saturday 2 June at 09.00.

Fishery Closed - Sunday 22 February

Unfortunately, we have woken to an overnight frost which has frozen the whole bottom lochan and much of the top lochan.

Keep an eye on the Blog and we will update as soon as we reopen.

Happy New Year - Fishery Update

A very happy new year to you all.

The Fishery has remained closed since our last blog.  For most of the period since 8 December, the lochans have been frozen.  On the few occasions that the lochans have thawed, the banks have been waterlogged.

That continues to be the case, and with bad weather forecast, it is unlikely that we will be able to open for the next few days.  As soon as conditions improve, we will update the blog.

In the meantime, to all of those who have called, followed the blog or had fruitless visits, thank you for your patience.

Fishery Re-opens Friday 23 December

The lochans have been inspected and we are reopening today.

The Top Lochan is fully thawed and the Bottom Lochan is 90% clear. The banks are okay with care but the water in the Bothy still needs reconnecting.
