 For the golden anniversary of Lake of Menteeth, the Golden Lady. And the tenets, Abbey Royal, the Earl of Menteeth, met a loyal maid, and took her hand to steal the king. Promise that he would be found at the home of Kirk and Crown. By night, he'd wait to keep a lover astray. And he'd send his waiting boat from Menteeth confessed his love. It's a privilege for me to be asked to make a presentation to Elma as a token of the company's appreciation of her contribution to the success of the fishery over 50 years. I think I'm safe in saying that Elma has booked every boat that has been booked by Elma. Quint keeps a careful note of every boat, but some of us were not so careful and so we had to make an informed guess as to how many boats might have been booked over the years. And we thought that it might have been a quarter of a million, which with two man boats means half a million anglers. And Elma knows them all. At the beginning, we only had 12 boats and now at a push Quint can put out 40. Nowadays, Elma does more than just booking boats and her contribution to the running of the fishery is both important and much appreciated. Elma, thank you very much. And I'm not making a speech, I'm glad to know. What a remarkable place to come to when you see the incredible backdrop that you're fishing with here and we quite can't see Ben Lohman yet but I hope we can spot it later on the day. And you also know that when you're taking part in your sport, you're doing that in a part of the world where it's got an incredible history. Robert the Bruce, Mary, Queen of Scots, visited Minnsville Home Island here in the past. It's a burial place for Roberto Bontein Cunningham Graham, who was a remarkable man, he stayed at Gartness for some time. He founded the Labour Party in Scotland, he founded the Scottish National Party in Scotland. We could probably do him now to bring these two warring tribes together a bit more. He was also a writer and adventurer and he's buried there on the island and he's probably not as well known as Robert the Bruce or Mary, Queen of Scots, but he's nevertheless a remarkable character. And of course, in more recent years this place has taken the Grand Matches, the Bones Veils as this place freezes over, has been organised by the old Caledonian Curling Club. So lots of things have gone on here in the past. Now if you're a follower of a different sport, 1966 conjures up images of England winning the World Cup. But I usually manage to keep people quiet when they're telling me that when I mentioned to them actually the most important thing that happened in the world that year was opening the Lake Amen Teeth Fishery. And that usually brings about the stunned silence that I was hoping for because of that. And because of the, obviously the Riparian owners who took that decision in 1966 to set up this fishery and open up to people, have done Scottish fishing, a remarkable bit of good. And if I understand rightly, the average catch here last year was £2.5 in terms of the fish that were caught. And that's quite a feat to be able to say that. And that's because of that reason that there's so many competitions now come here obviously. Last year we had the home international championships for both the seniors and the youths here and I'm glad to say the Scots won them both. I just hope we can do the same in rugby and football in future as well. And there are obviously competitions brought here by Sanak and Sanak who are obviously Sanak are responsible for overseeing the national angling championships. This lake brings a lot of people to the area. It creates employment and it's a very progressive fishery. I think it's one of the few fisheries I've got right as well that enables disabled fishers to come along and fish here. And that's one of the reasons that the disabled international championships are coming here in the coming year. So that shows the progressive nature. I know they're doing all they can, possibly can to encourage as many young people in future to come here. But that wouldn't happen folks without the dedicated individuals who work here, people like Quint, like Douglas Fraser, I've got that name right. And obviously, Douglas Fraser standing here, he's the name on his jacket as soon as he's born. And Elma. So I think we should give a round of applause to these three contestants. I've been here about 20 years. Douglas has been here 31 years, but remarkable Elma. We've just heard he's been here as long as a fishery itself. It's quite an astonishing thing to be able to achieve. Listen folks, you've got what you want to get on with your fishing. I just wish I could, I hope I can one day join you when my woman lets me in future years. Get on, enjoy it, and I declare the whole fishery open today. Have a wonderful day.
