Camlin and District Anglers held their Ray Gill Memorial Competition on Sunday at Lanesborough. It was a crisp blustery Spring day. Water levels had risen significantly over the past couple of weeks which made fishing challenging. This was our first competition in which we used measuring boards and the fish were measured rather than weighed. Prizes went for the 3 longest fish over 50cm.
Joe Mc Dermott of Ambush angling Ireland and Denniston’s of Longford sponsorship went towards the measuring boards and the committee should be applauded for all the hard work they put into having everything ready for the day.
The club gave its thanks to Fr. Michael Reilly for the blessing of the boats ceremony, to Clarkes pub in Lanesborough and to Tom Gill for some top class Sandwiches!
The following are the results:
- 1st. Brendan Griffith and Liam Sweeney 3 fish to 202 cm
- 2nd. Rafal Plec and Igor Klosowski 3 fish to 200 cm
- 3rd. Padraig and Ciara Corcoran 3 fish to 196.5 cm
- 4th Jason and Aaron Carr 3 fish to 189 cm
