Emma Stanley reports on coarse fishing around Tipperary…
Templemore lake had a very successful Coarse fish competition on the 10th of June last with very good-sized fish being caught. Largest Tench caught was 7lbs, Bream 8.5lbs and Hybrids 3/4lbs. There are some carp in the lake also but there have been no reports to date of any catches during the competition.
Upcoming competition:
A Pike competition is to be held on Sunday 29th June next on Templemore lake. The competition is being run by Templemore and District Angling Club
Bio Security: As always, we would kindly like to remind all who use Irelands watercourses to please use appropriate biosecurity measures for themselves so to help prevent the spread of invasive species in and out of the water.
Water Safety: The Carrick staff would kindly like to remind all about the importance of using Life Jackets in and around water as they really do save lives. Adequate Flotation devices should always be worn and it especially sets a template regards water safety where younger Anglers are present.
“Take only memories, leave only footprints”. The Carrick staff would like to ask all who are using the water courses in the area to be mindful of littering and to please use bins provided or take home their rubbish.
