So ..... the new location for this year is in Fintry, a few miles up the road from Carron Valley Reservoir and beside the Endrick?

I confess I had to look that up on the map.......

Hmm, just up the hill from me, may see if I can make it this year.

Pop in past Culcreuch Castle and you will drive past the most famous and iconic carp water in Scotland...shame the hotel decided to not renew the SCG lease on it :(
Even the late and great Richard Walker fished it in the 60's. One of the last places in the UK to have truely natural "Wild carp".
-
Can you still fish it? You should come down to the meet, should be good providing the weather holds (usually doesn't for that weekend).
Cheers

Rest assured, while you lot have fun, I will be making sure you sleep safely in your beds at night! ;)

Think you've told me about that place before then.
Bit concerned by your last comment Rob? :shock

Probably best Marc, not sure that there's any other seniors coming for you to compete against and victory by default doesn't feel that great :z7

Funny place to hold this event ..... I'm finding that decent hotel options are very limited :z6

I decided to just go there and back in a day.
It had better not be pissing down :roll

I didn't make it :z10 The wee lad had a poor night which means we had a poor night and...well.... I wasn't driving down to Fintry on a couple of hours kip.
Here's hoping the day goes well.

Great weekend :z16
B&B was excellent, plus full marks to the Fintry Inn for food and drink. Great to catch up with everybody and the casting was loads of fun! Didn't take any photos, but others did and they'll hopefully post some :cool:
Cheers

The heavy air on the day kept distances down a bit, but here are some of the results in feet and inches :cool:
