Western Regional Fisheries Board Fisheries Week April 25th

#1 Post by uvox »

Including: "Later in the week events such as beach fishing and coaching will be provided at Silverstrand in Galway and Lettergesh near Leenane. A kids’ fishathon and BBQ will also be hosted in Galway City."

Looks interesting. Wonder if there's an East Coast equivalent?

No east coast equivalent yet, just the Shannon and Western RFBs doing it next week. Watch this space though, there may be something planned for late August for other regions.

Anyone in the Galway/Mayo area is more than welcome to attend, some events may be oversubscribed so just give a ring to book a place in advance.
Its called fishing, not catching. If it was called catching it wouldn't be fishing!
