Well-known coarse angler Philip Jackson is hosting a new angling competition for budding young coarse anglers this August, supported by the NCFFI. See his post below for details:
New for 2026! Something for the younger match anglers. 2 days, 29th & 30th August, venue, Lough Muckno. Great support in sponsorship from Daiwa UK, Sensas Ireland, & Coarse Angling Ireland NCFFI.I’ve felt for a while the youth angling scene is gaining a bit of momentum in Ireland and needed something new. I’d like this to be a social get together and a fun weekend, good fishing, a bit of craic, prize giving on Sunday evening with a few refreshments to send everyone home happy.Let’s make it a success, please share and get the word out there! Thank you. Booking via the QR code on the poster or follow the link.
