Angling in the news

#1 Post by paulrobinson99 »

Guy's we just got a great profile piece on the RTE 6.01 news tonight highlighting the Irish Boat team in the world championships this week.
Could I ask as many people as possible to send a quick email to RTE info@rte.ie and Thanks them for their support for our Sport, it will ultimately have a positive impact for us all!!

The Italians did a lot of work with divers and the coloured leads that are on the go just now.
