The 2014 Irish Bass Festival is a lure angling event created and organised by Absolute Fishing. It is a catch-and-release tournament open to all shore anglers and taking place on Ireland’s South Coast in County Waterford and will fished on 25, 26 and 27 July.
Absolute Fishing is a fishing tackle shop based in Tramore and is working closely with travel and accommodation experts Active Irish Angling who provide affordable inclusive packages for competitors.
The main bass venues extend from Tramore and Dungarvan, passing through six small villages along 25 kilometres (16 miles) of spectacular coastline featuring scalloped beaches, sandy coves and rocky headlands. And it provides some of the best bass fishing in Europe!
Competing anglers are free to roam and fish anywhere along this beautiful coastline from Wexford to Cork providing they are back in time to register their fish. The Irish Bass Festival is “catch and release” with anglers having to photograph their fish, using their own measuring board combined with a unique ID card that is provided by the organisers.
