A private competion was held recently at Alderneuk and although the day was extremely sunny and bright 12 anglers landed 17 fish. The winner was Jim Boardman with 4 fish to just under 14lb. Heaviest fish of the day went to Bert Hogg with a lovely 41/2lb rainbow. A good day was had by all.
We have recently stocked some larger trout: 71/2lb and 81/2lb rainbows, 61/4lb and 71/2lb tiger trout and a 61/2lb brown trout. Also stocked were some smaller tigers to about 41/2lb and some lovely blues. This has added a slightly different dimension to the fishery and the anglers have had some excellent sport.
Fish of note: fantastic looking 4lb tiger caught on a Cruncher, rainbow just under 5lb on a buzzer and a perfect 3lb 11oz blue on a Cats Whisker.

Great wee fishery, extremely well run, grade A fish, that fight like trains,
I enjoyed catching my first 4 lb Tiger Trout,
But it was catching six, and losing many more on a size 16 dry,
And none under 3lbs,that was a day to remember.
Never caught a fish at this venue, that did not have a perfect full tail.
