Lough Arrow Fish Preservation Association and District Anglers had its first competition of the season last weekend. Sunday was a very mild but cold day and at the start conditions appeared promising. Unfortunately there was no hatch of any sort during the day so the trout kept their heads down for the most part. By the end of the competition the 25 anglers competing reported 13 fish caught of which 10 were weighed in.
The winner of The Mayfly Inn Perpetual Cup was Paddy Carr with a fish weighing 2.722 lbs.
Results are as follows:
- 1st Paddy Carr 2.722 lbs
- 2nd Gavin Cogan 2.548 lbs
- 3rd Adrian Murphy 1.926 lbs
- 4th Karl Murrin 1.88 lbs
- 5th Thomas Walsh 1.618 lbs
The LAFPADA thanked all those who took part and the The Mayfly Inn, Ballinafad for hosting the weigh in and providing hot finger food after.
The next club competition will be their Mayfly competition in May, date TBC.
