Fish Filleting night THURSDAY 15TH NOVEMBER

This will be held this THURSDAY 14th NOVEMBER at SCOT-PRIME FOODS warehouse at Troon Harbour. Meeting at 7pm for a 7.30 start. Please wrap up warm.

Steven Toner will show how to expertly fillet both flat and round fish and everyone will get a shot themselves. The fillets will then be given out for you to take home.

In addition, Les McBride has very generously offered to sharpen everyone's filleting knives on his super duper laser sharpener. Knives will be taken away on the night and should be back within the week. A small donation to the RNLI will be requested for this service.
Please submit your names to Scott or Gordon
Our thanks go to Dan Hendrie of Scot-Prime Foods in Troon for the use of his facilities, and of course Steven "The Flashing Blade" Toner

Jamies latest haul

Willie joined Jamie for session on Prestwick beach last Saturday. The fishing was generally slow but Jamie had a good take within 10 minutes of starting. Making good use of his two rods Willie grabbing one, Jamie the other a brief battle took place both verbally and psychically as the lads rescued the rods from the sea and shared some hints and tips with their new found chum.
With 7 miles of beach it's hard to reason why anybody would set up 20ft  away from and angler and be surprised when the NW wind sends them off at speed left straight through an anglers gear.
