I can't believe gypsy is a world champion! Well done boyyyy!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to all involved, a great reward for a huge effort - flying over early for 2 weeks of practice and the week of competition must have cost each of them a lot of money. Hope they get a massive homecoming welcome, and the publicity they deserve.
Its called fishing, not catching. If it was called catching it wouldn't be fishing!

Fantastic result. It shows it can be done.
Congratulations to the team and to Tom. They have put in a lot of effort and best of all, they have proved results of previous years. That has certainly established the Irish Shore Team as absolutely TOP CLASS.

Well done!!

Just back from SA today (I've missed a quarter of my sons life competing in SA so hard to justify another few days celebrating). A few pictures attached from the top of Table Mountain from yesterday - the rest of the team were last seen heading off cage diving to see great whites, personally I dont want to see another fish for a while!. On behalf of the rest of the team, many thanks for all the messages of congratulations and support, it is very much appreciated.

Timmy
