Master Angler

Has anyone got any reports from the Master Angler in Cork over the weekend?

I'll try to get more details but I was told that Heiko won with a score of (4x100)=400

Top six anglers in Master Angler Boat 2008

Fished Masters over weekend.Weather fine, if not too fine!!! 84 anglers fished.
Saturday boats fished east of the Cork Bouy and off Power Head.Some tried the Daunt Rock but not for long.
Sunday boats were more spread out but fished the same areas.

Fishing was dominated by poor cod,given that there was 10 points for "other species" of which it was one.Therefore it was important to gain your 10 limit to secure 100 points plus another 11 species points.Whiting showed well on some boats as did congers.Pollack were scarce at the Cork Bouy/Smiths but a bit more plentiful down east.Tide was slack on both days and because of wind direction,especially Sunday the boats "hung" awkwardly which made it difficult for some.

Overall, a well run competition with a good share of fish, but unfortunate to see so many poor cod killed needlessly.

Well done to the prize winners and to all who took part.

heard from a mate of mine there was a 6cm limit on the competion would this be true,,

15 cm size limit as passed at IFSA agm last year.

sorry lads was meant to be 6 inches , is this a standard size limit for competitions and why so small i know some species are of an extremly small size , but how low do ya go....
