The Irish Boat Team are competing in the World Championships this week in Novigrad, Croatia in the northern Adriatic Sea. The venue, species and tactics will be very different to what the Irish team are used to here at home, and to prepare they have been out in Croatia for the last week practising every day for this week’s competition. The team is as follows: Mark Devir, Padraic Clear, Brian Whelan, Terry Boyle, John Dennehy and Dan Lynch.
Official practice day is today, with 3 days of competition following. Bria Whelan has been posting plenty of updates, photos and videos on the IFSA Facebook page, and we will be keeping a keen eye on how the lads are doing this week. Fingers crossed for a good result, and best of luck to all the anglers!
