Killala Boat & Shore Angling Club hosted the IFA fish-offs for the team to fish in World Championships in Italy next year…
The weekend just gone, saw 36 of the finest and best shore anglers on the island of Ireland come to Killala once again to participate in the Fish Off’s to seek their ambition of representing Ireland in the World Championships.
Three sessions were held over the weekend, Enniscrone, Lacken and Srah to give each angler on every session 4 hours to show why they are here and to exhibit their skills.
Saturday saw lovely calm conditions with both sessions fishing very well , however Sunday saw very tough westerlies face each angler but determination oversaw conditions and it’s a credit to each angler.
The team for Italy is
- Tim O’Sullivan Galway Bay Sea Angling Club
- William Weir Castaways
- David O’Sullivan Tralee Bay Sea Angling Club
- JP Molloy West Cork and District SAC
- Kevin Barber Maugherow Sac
Cheers to all who helped out with stewarding from within the club, outside and to the Federation score recorders for marking the score cards as well as The Village Inn for allowing us to use their function room to hold the peg draw
