Mick Flanagan reports on the Lough Lene Cup…

Last Sunday Lough Lene angling association hosted their first trout competition of the 2018 season. The association is 60 years in existence this season and is going from strength to strength as the years drift past. Last Sunday conditions were quite good with little or no wind at times, and actually the sun broke through at times.
