Top Rod Graham Summers

Clean Sweep on Hundland for Graham Summers

Thankfully, the high winds that had swept across the county for two days had abated to nothing more than a chilly NNW breeze as the ten anglers who turned out to fish for the Taffy Allan Trophy set up at the Hundland site hut. That wind had taken a toll on water quality though and parts of the loch were highly coloured making it difficult to locate the many stones and skerries lying just below the surface. Most started up at the OTFA Site end with good long drifts down the loch, not long in though and the Skerries and Bottom Corner were being checked out. At close of play there were some cracking baskets of well-conditioned trout presented at the weigh-in. Davy Linklater and Hamish Doull continued their good form with 9 for 6lb 11ozs and 10 for 9lb 11½ozs, respectively. It was Graham Summers who took the silverware though with his 13 fish for 11lb 15ozs including the days heaviest fish, a beauty at 1lb 13ozs. Davy and Hamish having success in among the Skerries, while Graham never moved far from the shallow water in School Bay and down the OTFA Site shore, well done lads. We’re off to Harray next on Sunday 31st May fishing the Pomona Cup 11.00am – 4.00pm.
