Twenty-six members of the Dublin Trout Anglers’ Association were on Lough Owel last weekend to fish their annual Pasker Cup competition. Conditions were far from perfect, with the sun high and bright in the sky, and a stiff easterly breeze making things tricky to say the least. There were plenty of blanks on a day when only seven anglers returned fish, but one boat took the lion’s share as boat partners PJ O’Driscoll and Chris Meadows both bagged a brace to finish 1st (4.38lb) and 3rd (3.5lb) respectively. Tom Hipwell finished second with a brace of fish for 3.82lb.
