March has arrived and this coming month is a very busy one for the region. The second weekend of the month and we have the PAC event on the Lake of Menteith and the following week another of the Jolly Boys outings which are always popular and fully subscribed. So a lot of Pike fishing to look forward to and hopefully some good fish will be captured. Looking back at February and the weather played a big part in whether you ventured out or stayed at home. Two of our regular stalwarts Bruce Turnbull and Dave Greally were not going to be held back and despite wind, rain, and extreme mud at times were determined to be on the bank after that extra special fish. As the saying goes "If you don't put bait in you wont catch" and both I am pleased to say were successful. Bruce had the extra special fish with a lovely 21lb Pike. ( See An Anglers Diary Chapter 6 for the full story).

The fifth round of the region's Winter Pike championship was interrupted by storm Dennis but some members did venture out and despite some atrocious weather conditions the sun came out and Dave Gardner caught the only fish of the day.
Dave - Only Pike of the day.
One round to go in this seasons championship and presently Dave Greally in pole position.
