Irish Bass Festival Results!

The Irish Bass Festival was fishing in pretty difficult conditions last weekend, the winds and weed being a real problem, but there were were a few good fish caught and Richard Cake’s 74cm fish was a worthy winner.

Richard is no stranger to the Irish Bass Festival, having fished the competition last year, though not with such a great return. “This was my second Irish Festival,” says Richard, “blanked last year! I love this place and will be returning for it again in 2016. Very well run and always great people to meet and talk to along the coast.”
