You still have time to enter The Scierra Pairs which carries the highest prize fund in British competition fly-fishing with prizes at every heat in addition to the final.
The format allows a pair of anglers entering to fish in the same boat and restrictive rules are kept to a minimum.
The competition allows all flies permitted by the fishery.
Each pair on first entry will receive a value pack containing relevant and valuable products worth more than the entry fee. There will also be hidden prizes in a proportion of value bags. Multiple entries are encouraged.
The organisers are keen to encourage junior participation and every pair of anglers containing one or more anglers under-18 can claim a discount of £10 on first entry.
The local dates are Morton Fishings on Sunday, June 3 and Glencorse Trout Fishery on Sunday, June 17. Glencorse is fully-booked.
Other dates are Carron Valley near Denny on Sunday, May 27, Black Loch at Limerigg south of Falkirk on Sunday, July 1 and Lake of Menteith near Stirling on Sunday, July 22.
The final is at Grafam Water on Sunday, August 26 and all heats fish from 10am until 5pm. Anglers can sign from 8.30am and a briefing will be held at 9.45am.
