Bass Rock Shore Angling League host a match at Dunbar Harbour on Wednesday, August 19, with registration at 6.20pm near the old castle.

Fishing from the harbour wall is from 7pm to 10pm and new members are always welcome with cod the fish earmarked for the three hour session.

Still on the East Coast, Aquamarine Charters report good catches at the weekend off Eyemouth.

Among the best was a 10lb cod (pictured) landed by Darek and spaces are available on boats during the next few weeks.

Fly fishing now and Robert Ross reports that black dry flies, small muddlers and sedges are among the best patterns at Harlaw Reservoir above Balerno.

Finally, around 1,000 fish including roach, pike and even eel have been returned to the union Canal after a breach after recent stormy weather.
