Re: The return of North V South........:-)
I'm definitely up for this 
Southern: Salthill(Galway) has a huge beach?
Northern: Waterfoot,Ballyholme,Benone,Portrush?
I recall a campsite in Salthill was something like 12yoyo's a night and there's plenty of bars within reasonable walking distance. Northern ideas are pretty much similar.
Oh and congrats on test Drew

I won't be at this, but Salthill is crap and no where near big enough. There are a couple of beaches in connemara that would hold a good few people.

Re: The return of North V South........:-)
Roots of this are up North lads, we've neglected this area slightly in terms of Site and Club and it might be nice to hit somewhere up that neck of the woods for a change and get a good mix from both N and S of the border. Its more a social event than a trip specifically for great fishing so that will take precedence.....

Fluff chucking is the new black..... Rampant Wreckfish is a fly angler in denial

Re: The return of North V South........:-)
I wouldn't mind a go at this myself, any chance of a novice section ?
I don't fish to catch fish. I just like using the gear.
If you think I am narky now, you should hear me when I'm in bad humour.

Re: The return of North V South........:-)
Looks like I'll be booking a couple of days leave then, and I'd better start practising my drinking as well 

If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.
