Westport Angling Club recently held their annual junior competition for local youngsters on Moher Lake, near Westport. 17 young anglers fished on a day that threatened rain, but the competition was finished just in time before the downpours arrived. The event was a great success, and the winner on the day was Naoise Kennedy with 6 fish for 2.670 kilos. Patrick Hegarty was second, and in third place was Joseph Cleary.  Adam Walsh won the heaviest fish prize with a trout of 0.838kg. All the small and wild fish were released. Well done to all involved on a well-organised competition and a great day out for the young rods!
