Come on then lads im thinking about a trip this year (not the acid sort

) and wonder if any of you can give me some advice as to best festivals, best fishing and more importantly best BEER. Never been before as I have always been a Whiteacres freak. Around September / October time.

muckno pairs all the way dan

#5

Dan, myself and Pete Jayes are planning to go too this year about the same time !
I have had a look and I think Muckno pairs is fully booked. That leaves King of clubs or Cootehill festival which I have fished before. I quite fancy Cootehill as its a good mix of pole and feeder. They also run a team of 3 alongside the individuals.
Last time I fished Cootehill it was a 5 day competition.
We got there on Saturday, practiced Sunday, fished Mon to Fri with results every night in the different bars.
Went home Sat.
I am going to trawl the net to look at whats on offer ! will get back !

Oh Danny Boy,

The pipes of Muckno are calling.

Best roach fishing (and Guinness pub) in the whole of Ireland at Castleblayney. You should be able to get on it as some always drop out when they are due to pay.
If you want to know 'owt abut it make a list up and giz a bell...

Tony its a gay pub......

Got to agree on the roach fishing bit though, wish I'd booked on again but as Martin can't go (again) I didn't want to be like last year and spend 3 months trying to find someone to go with.

Guiness and Chinese takings will be down without you and Terry though mate
