You need to be a member of a club to fish club competitions unless they are opens

You still have to be a member of a IFSA affiliated club to fish IFSA opens in Ireland.

Currently the only opens I know of in Ireland that are not IFSA sanctioned are the Daiwa pairs run by SAMF and EFSA`s Winter Beach Festival. There may be more than these though.
UP THE DEISE!!!!!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

You can get a day pass, you do not need to be a member of an ifsa club to get a day pass.

I forget how much they are - either €20 or €25
Then you have to pay your entry fee to the competition
They are to make sure you are covered for insurance purposes.

However most clubs membership is €50 - €60, with entries anywhere from €10 - €20, so unless you are only only are only going to fish a couple of competitions it would probably work out cheaper for you to join a club near you
