Another season of competitions and good craic over once again - I think they are going in quicker every year. Just to say a big thanks to Tmac for another successful and well organised year. These comps I believe are a big part of the glue that keeps the club together and hope next year and the years to come are just as enjoyable and sporting.

This Saturday is our last competition of the season, cant believe were this season has gone.The Gerard McLarnon Memorial Cup is up for grabs, also there is the heaviest Dollaghan  the heaviest Brown Trout and the heaviest overall bag of fish is  up for grabs.Second spot in the league has to be sorted out between myself and Philip, I think I'm the favorite for this one. So hope to see a good few out for this one.Tight Lines.

Sorry-yet again I have to report that the Polepatrick stream was heavily polluted with a white substance last night. It was the worst i have ever seen. It was impossible to see the bottom at any point.Are there any agencies who will look into this blatant problem?

I am sure it''''s boring to hear this yet again but the stream at Polepatrick was dreadfully polluted yesterday evening. It looked as if it was full of milk!

Thanks Jack, its nice to fish with the neighbours and do well. They are a great bunch of people and very hospitable. Thanks to the Ballinderry club for a good day out. To be honest, the only reason we won anything is because Sean Henry wasn't fishing!

Congratulations to the Moyola anglers who took top spots in the Ballinderry club competition on Saturday. Brian Bigmore, Philip Maguire and Tommy McGrath all had a successful day.
