For the past six months, Naas & District Anglers have been holding a knockout competition where members face off against each other until there are only two left standing. The final two this year were Paul McLaughlin and defending champ from 2022 Aivaras Zymancius, and they headed down to Oaklands Lake in New Ross for the final shoot-out.
Fishing was superb on the day, and Paul managed a very creditable 159lb. But, unfortunately for him, Aivaras was on top form on the day and bagged a monstrous 330lb, making him uncatchable and giving him the title for the second year in a row.
