Bass angling wins

I was absolutely delighted to receive the joint runner-up award in the tourism category of The Wexford Business Awards 2012 in Whites hotel last night. It was a real honour to share the stage with the other runners-up, Bill and Isobel Kelly of Kelly’s Resort Hotel. Kelly’s Resort Hotel went on to win the overall Wexford Business Award.

The shortlisted finalists in the Wexford tourism award category were



Celtic link ferries
Griffin group
Irish national heritage park
Kellys resort hotel
Morriscastle strand holiday park
Talbot hotel Wexford
Wexford festival opera
Whites of Wexford
Whitford house hotel
South East Angling Ireland

This category was sponsored by Highwind Films

To have been shortlisted within this group of dynamic Wexford tourism business providers was in itself a privilege. To receive the runner-up award was beyond my greatest expectation.

I feel this award will only help to strengthen the validity of the bass fishing product in this country.

Thanks to all my friends, customers and loyal bass fishing network.

Well done Jim!!

You thoroughly deserve the recognition for all your work and more.

Very well done Jim, to have Bass fishing associated with a tourism award is an excellent achievement...

I'd like to echo those sentiments.

Fair play Mr Hendrick, I don't know how much work you have put into your business, but I would guess that 70% of it goes unrewarded? You deserve it guy!

FairPlay Jim, well deserved

Well done Jim,

Recognition for all your effort over the years putting bass, sea angling, Wexford, and Ireland on the map.

Thanks for the words guys, I'm very happy that a Bass fishing guiding service could win a tourism award in the face of such wider and capable opposition. Interesting to see how I can leverage it and how its interpreted, reported or 'used' on a wider scale!

best - Jim

Well done Jim a fantastic achievement against some well established competition.......
