This is an annual event promoted by the owner of the loch, Mr Peter Hovig, who kindly allows club members to fish for the day.

 On what was the hottest day of the year in Caithness (unofficially recorded at 29C in Thurso), the   participants had some difficulty in not only moving fish but also hooking them. The sky remained blue throughout most of the day but at least the southerly wind remained constant which kept the midgies at bay.

    The competition was won by Alan Porteous with 7 fish weighing 4lb 2oz

     The heaviest fish was taken by Ken Macleod at 1lb 13oz
