Anthony Weir from Tulla and District Angling Club has been on to say that will be clearing swims at OBriensbridge this Saturday, 01 April,  from 10am to 2pm. Members are asked to attend if free, and it would be a good chance for anyone looking to join to introduce yourself to the club.

Anthony also advises that NCFFI will be hosting the World Feeder Club Championships at Lough Muckno on April 22 and 23, and are looking for stewards.

It’s a great experience if you are free.

World Feeder Club Championships – Lough Muckno – Steward’s

The NCFFI is honoured to have been appointed by FIPSed the world governing body for sport fishing to host the championships and we are delighted to hold it on Lough Muckno, Castleblayney.

The competition to be held on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd of April will see 33 angling clubs representing 20 nations compete for the Club Championship title in feeder fishing. Representing Ireland will be the Lurgan Coarse Angling Club and the CM Lakelands Feeder Club hoping for a podium finish on home waters.

Your help is required to steward the event. Each day of the championships we are required to monitor the activities of the anglers and keep a note of the fish caught. With 150 fishing its a tough call to have someone behind every angler with 30 stewards required for each of the five sections.

NCFFI stewards and FIPSed officials will be on the bank for support and to monitor each fishing section.

Munster CAC are requesting their affiliated Clubs to see if they have members interesting volunteering to do Steward for a day or even the two days of this Championship if possible.
