Tralee Bay SAC brave the sun on trip to Glin

4

The Tralee Bay SAC headed up to the Shannon Estuary for a competition last Sunday. Fishing in the Glin area, 19 anglers braved the sweltering heat and bright sunshine on what was a day for shades and sunblock..

Unfortunately, the fish were also seeking shade somewhere, as catches were not as prolific as expected, despite a bright start to proceedings as a couple of decent ray were landed early doors.

Anglers had to scratch about for wrasse, gurnards and a few baby ray as the competition progressed, and tackle losses also mounted up from the rough ground. But it’s not often we get to fish in such balmy conditions, so few were complaining.

Results as follows:

Junior
1st Luke Walsh – 1 fish 82 points
Senior
1st Fiachra Cronin – 8 fish 203 points
2nd Brendan Moriarty – 2 fish 123 points
3rd David Griffin – 1 fish 94 points
