An 8 day Feast of Angling begins on Lough Muckno on Sunday the 12th July with a pre Muckno Mania Festival open knock-up. This has been laid on to facilitate Festival anglers travelling from abroad in good time for our 5 day Festival, commencing Monday the 13th July 2015 and running for 5 days till July 17th.
If that were not enough, the Muckno Mania Angling Festival week finishes off with the IADA Garda open on Saturday the 18th of July 2015 and with the IADA Irish Open itself on Sunday the19th July 2015.
These one day Opens and 5 day Festival promise to bring to life the angling scene in the region with household names, venue experts and deserved hopefuls from at home and abroad vying for the substantial prize funds on offer, including considerable sponsorship.
With the Lough coming back into some good form after the late spawning, great competition is expected in wonderful surroundings where strong friendships and manly rivalries will be renewed with some enthusiasm and a little mystery( secrecy).
Nets will be dipped, good and bad draws made, moaning engaged in ,good and bad matches fished, moaning engaged in again and great after match entertainment and arrangements enjoyed, as ever on this very enjoyable Festival.
Muckno Community Partnership Monaghan County Council and Lough Muckno Matches and Festivals group wish all of our travelling visitors and all of our competitors good luck and great fishing during your stay in our town and pleasant surrounding area.
