A Judge has ruled against anglers involved in a long-running dispute with authorities over the right to fish on the Gweebarra River. Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) took a case against anglers following a dispute over a management plan for the Gweebarra River which came into place in 2007. The anglers had claimed they had rights to fish on the river that were established for generations but the IFI argued that if such rights were upheld it would have made the arrangements introduced in 2007 unworkable.
