The Last Chance

Hi All
The last chance was fished on lough Owel as usual it was a tough day when experience shone through  to win the day. Jimmy Carroll took the honers see pic below of the presentation at the AGM, well done Jimmy a fine trout.



The Sedge

Hi all
Sorry for the delay in info flow lately a few computing issues at this end the only consolation is you didn't miss much, the last few weeks of the season this year have been the worst most can remember with river levels at record lows, fish hiding/in distress and prolific weed growth due to water conditions all round there hasn't been much to shout about, even so we kept plugging away with our competitions. The Sedge was fished in miserable wet windy conditions and was very hard going with most anglers struggling to rise a fish let alone hook one, it was won with a last ditch attempt at the pool below the bridge in Leixlip proberly the only spot on the river that evening that the weather was not a factor. It was won in the end by Jason Nolan with 2 fish for 17 inches, second was Kevin Tipper with one fish for 12 inches & third was Paul Hegarty. Heres to hoping next years event will be ran in better conditions.

The Green Peter

Hi all

The Green Peter was fished on Lough Owel and was a hard slog with only 2 fish caught  and not much more risen, the highlight of the day being Donals BBQ at the end. The competition was won in the end by Jimmy Carroll with Declan Shannon second well done lads on such a tough day.
