The Snowbee Masters pairs competition was excellent with the quality of the fish and fishing,which saw most anglers putting many 4lb fish back as they knew that to stand any chance with winning they needed heavier fish, as so many larger were being caught and weighed in.
The results in the end were,in 1st place and winning a total of £500 in prizes,were Jock Ewing and Walter Senior with 4 fish of 19lbs 15ozs,2nd place ,winning £200 of prizes was Mark Morrison and Marc Moss with 19lbs 13ozs,3rd place winning over £130 of prizes was Brian McGlashan and Alec Cruickshank with 18lbs 12ozs.
Winner of the heaviest fish was Jock Ewing with an 8lb 4oz fish.
40 anglers competed and plenty of fish over 4lbs were caught and weighed in which made it a close competition.
All in all it was a great day out and very good fishing,especially for people who had travelled a fair distance to compete, all enjoyed the day and fabulous Buffet and sportsmanship from everyone was first class.
