Saturday starts our first competition of the season the Diamond Service Station Cup, At the  minute it does not look good for the Fly Angler with high water today but good for the bait Angler. last years junior and senior league winners Eimhear McClenaghan and Brian Bigmore will be out to retain there titles again so let's not make it as easy for them this time around. our first away trip is to Dunfanaghy on the 2 nd & 3 rd of May,anyone wishing to go please can you let me know before the 11 th of April so I can book accommodation.So good luck to every one of our club members for the in coming competition season.There will be a few new rules this season for the (bait) anglers. TIGHT LINES.

I see that in the latest Trout And Salmon Michael Short has mentioned the situation of the fishkill and will return to the subject. Well done to the Club for highlighting this disgrace and I hope all angling stakeholders keep up the pressure.
