Pete Davis of West Cork and District SAC writes on their recent club match on Ballyquin Beach:

We fished Ballyquin beach at the weekend. Dogfish showed up from the first cast to a few angler’s. Most fish caught on the night were dogs with the odd bullhuss, bass, poor cod and cod showing up. The best fish of the night was caught by Jason Santry with a nice smoothhound of 92cm.

Good luck!

The club are delighted to have six members traveling to the Home-nations in Weymouth July 4th-8th to represent Ireland. It’s a great achievement for us.

We have Liam Davis representing the U/16 squad, Noah Tahran the U/21 squad and in the senior Men’s squad we have Derek Kenrick (manager) , JP Molloy (captain) , Stephen O Donovan and David O Sullivan.

The very best of luck lad’s and we hope ye take home gold.
