With three prestigous titles up for grabs the burning question was, who had actually won? As the number crunching began in Kilmuckridge this evening, word began to circulate about this years winners and all was eventually revealed at this evenings presentation in Sean Og’s. This event is gaining more and more popularity each year and today sixty seven anglers fished the event. Catches were fantastic over the event with 815 fish caught on Thursday, 356 on Friday and 836 on Saturday.  These and hundreds of undersized fish were all returned to the water. This years individual title went to Paul Tyndall who put in some great performances over the three days. In second place in the individual was Karl Whelan and third place went to Chris Clarke from the New Forest in the UK.
