I'm fishing it on Saturday so I'll post a report. Don't fancy our chances much tho, after all the practicing there'll be this week and the comp on Friday

If anyone has any advice for Saturday, feel free to pm me if you want to keep it secret

Off to Menteith 5am in the morning. I'll post a report from the hotel and hopefully a few pics of some nice trout.

Thank you clydesdale for the tips.

My mate James Gardiner and his wife Joy were on the Lake today and had 15 in the boat at 5pm, ( don't know how they finished) i only gave him a call to see how wet and miserable he was. And thats after all the practising and the national final the previous day!
