Great work and fun had by the Northern Ireland Cross Community Anging NICCA who were out fishing and report:

The 7th BAITS Project session took place today at Beechhill Fishery in Newtownards. This week’s participants were from the newly formed Milltown Young Anglers. The enthusiastic beginners found it tough fishing as northern winds and bright sunshine proved tough conditions. Undeterred they didn’t lose concentration and through determination they all caught a mix of Rudd, Roach and Trout.
