Munster Coarse Anglers fished the 9th match of their winter series in O’Briensbridge at the weekend…

“Return of the Magnificent Seven”

The penultimate match in this year’s league saw Munster Coarse Angling Club meet at the bridge on Sunday morning to see whether to go downstream to the rowing course or up to the Dam. After a quick look at the river and the toss of a coin off towards the Dam it was.

No one was holding much hope with river at summer levels but having a dirty colour from the snow and rain earlier in the week. They took their pegs, set up and settled in for what has become their fortnightly penance…

There was false hope at the start as a few early bites were had but they soon disappeared and long waits between fish became the norm. In the end Steve and Richard renewed their tussle for top spot with Steve taking the honours this week.

  • Steve 2lb 6oz
  • Richard 2lb
  • Clive 1lb 15oz
  • Kevin 1lb 12oz
  • Ian 12oz
  • Morgan 10oz
  • Ray 5oz

Next Match in two weeks time

(Hopefully on a venue where the fish have a bit of an appetite)
