Lads this comp is being run a little bit differently to normal.

Its basically being run as half a big fish comp and half a normal match.

Its a good oppertunity for the big fish specialists to show the match anglers how its done with half the prize fund being dedicated to top places in the big fish catagory and half dedicated to the zone positions.

This format is being run on a tempory basis and if the interest is there(i.e. more anglers on the beach) we can look into running an Irish Open Shore big fish league next year and having someone crowned the Irish open shore big fish angling champion.

Bally heally is a great venue to start this off as there are large bass,smoothhound and tope available in good numbers.

looks good hope to be there!!

what was the result of last nights comp? any big fish caught?

A big thanks to all the lads for supporting this competition.

Weather conditions were excellent and the fishing had something for everyone be they match men or big fish hunters.
