Liam O’Brien and Sheila Bromley report that Ballybay Angling Club held a match yesterday Sunday 22nd June on Lough Muckno, Castleblayney in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. The fishing was extremely tough but despite this Ron Jordan came out on tops and had his choice of the prizes, as did all the anglers who were placed. Most importantly the event raised a whopping €2090.50 for the Irish Cancer Society.
The organisers thanked all those who donated prizes, shops, clubs, companies & federations. They said “we would like to thank Peter & Kathy from Irish Bait & Tackle who kindly donated all proceeds from their sales of this mornings bait to the anglers.
We would also like to thank Raymond Watters from the Old Coach Inn who fed & watered the anglers on their return from the banks of Lough Muckno. Lastly we would like to thank all the anglers who turned up to fish today and support this worthy charity”.
