Veterans Cup (Scotland)
The Veterans Cup is an individual competition fished to fishery rules from drifting boats. The League style competition is held at The Lake of Menteith and is fished over 7 rounds from March to September. Results will be decided on best 4 rounds from 7.
These outings are a great way to get out on a boat and fish loch style, whether you are new to the sport or to the fishing style, you will be sure to have a great day among fellow veterans and some top class anglers.
This is a friendly competition in a relaxed atmosphere where you will fish in two sessions, morning and afternoon with lunch in between supplied by the club sponsors. This also gives you the chance to get to know other veterans within the club and share your experiences and knowledge of the sport, as well as some banter.
