Southern County Fishing Resort is delighted to announce that we have Pro fly caster Dan O’Neill joining us for a casting clinic and Pro fly tyer George Burdess joining us for a fly-tying clinic. Both Dan and George hold ambassador roles with various companies and guide all over Ireland. They will join us on two separate demo days, and as well as giving various demonstrations, they will offer one-to-one tuition. Advice on equipment and what’s needed to make our fishing trips successful. There will also be kids fishing on our coarse lake; we will speak about setups and methods and hopefully catch that all-important fish. This will all be part of this fun-filled day with Dan and George at the Southern County Fishing Resort.
