Just back from the match, with less than an hour to go Irish angler Stephen Brennan was winning one section, while England International Chris Clarke was running away with his section. There seems to be big numbers of fish around. I would recomend that anyone interested in sea angling should try to get to one of these matches. These lads really know how to catch fish, I picked up several very useful tips.
Young Steven is definately getting a name for himself. Seems to be the hottest angler in Leinster at the minute. Only amater of time before he hits the big stage with a bang.
Has he not already? Stephen has been on the Irish team a few times now and as far as I know has a FIPS world team silver?
Fair play to him. There are a few begrudgers out there who say 'oh he was fishing in a hole' and the like. But what it comes down to is that he puts in a huge amount of time and effort and deserves his success.
Stephen has been on Irish youth teams before but it won;t be long till he makes the senior team. If Mick Kane and Stephen have scored well they will be Irelands 1st representitives at the Sea Angler penn league final.
To the best of my knowledge January starts the new 'Penn Sea League'. Stephen & Mick are still hanging in there with just a few competitions to score. It would be interesting to see both of them in the final.
For the second year in a row Stephen has finished second in the Winter Festival. This will almost certainly give him a place at the Penn Sea League final in the UK. Chris Clarke, an ex England international and current youth team coach won the event.
didnt stephen win the leinster league convincingly last year? i heard he was unlucky this year in the winter festival - he had 2 zone wins and a second, and chris clarke had 3 zone wins. noone has ever got 3 zone wins before, and any other year stephen would have won it easily!
all that!!!!!!is veryl "how should one put it" nice to read, put where or how does one find, where and when "forget why.www" these matches are being fished
