Lads,this is a site meet, in aid of the RNLI. Competition aspect is not that important.

Anyway
5 pts per fish for all fish
+ length for fish over 20cm
No species pts.

Suggested donation of a minimum of 10 euro.

Courtown Angling will generously throw in prizes in a number of categories, not sure yet what they are..
I hear rumours of the
"KFC & Petekd" most interesting bait bucket...
"Boycie" ..dig myself into a hole...
"Eric & TR Dallas" - "Oh Lord it's hard to be humble " (http://www.kovideo.net/lyrics/d/Davis-M ... umble.html)

prizes...

BY the way lads, this is not a club event. People should organise their own accident and public liability insurance if they want cover

Definitely, this is the big one. I heard Des Cahill and the RTE Outside Broadcast Unit will be there, but Rosanna Davison can only pose with lug worm at the shop until 12:30 so if you miss it then it's yer own fault.
