Micheál Quinn, Secretary of the Greystones Ridge Angling Club has just reported in on the first leg of the Leinster Shore League which was held yesterday Sunday 11th January 2015. 62 anglers from Wexford to Dundalk battled the elements in what could only be described as very tough conditions. Micheál reports that fishing was slow but for the low numbers in Zone 3 who were at the northern end of Newcastle. Zones 1 and 2 were in Kilcoole and the weather was a strong westerly wind all day. The competition was fished up and over high water.
The Overall winner (Zone 3) was Ciaran O’Toole of Greystones Ridge Angling Club, who had 27 fish, second (Zone 1) was Paul Tyndall Bray Head Social & Fishing Club and third was Ken Forsyth, Ballybrack (Zone 2).
Josh McAnespig from Courtown was the best junior, Ann Whitty, Bannow was the best lady.
