Joe Fitzharris reports on Lough O’Flynn’s Maloney/Keady Cup…

Anglers were introduced to Autumn with falling leaves, high water, and a biting northerly wind when fishing the annual Maloney/Keady Cup recently.

Fishing was slow on the day. Nevertheless, as usual a few lucky anglers got fish. Best flies on the day were Green Peter and Malone Daddy fished dry, and silver dabbers & Humongous fished wet.

Results as follows,

  • 1st Michael McDermott,  1lb 13.8 oz.
  • 2nd Damien Macklin, 1lb 11.8 oz.
  • 3rd Mark Malone,  1lb 10.0 oz.,

Secret weight winner was Anton Stephens.
