A great Day was had by everyone who took part in the Dick Doyle Competition. The winner was Declan Walsh. A very special thanks must go to John O'Brien outdoor angling centre for the fantastic sponsored prizes. Top prize was an electric outboard. Carrigavantry has been stocked since the competition and the fishing is excellent at the moment. Reports are 6lb rainbows are been caught and bag limits being reached by all who have fished in the last week. Finally for now would fishers who want to release their catch please make sure there fish are in a returnable condition you must use barbless hooks and have the tackle to cope with as quick a fight as possible. If the fish are bleeding at the gills or are too full of lactic acid they will likely die after being returned. Tight lines to all.

Our LEADER,WATERFORD Co. funded Development Project at
Carrigavantry is well advanced and should be completed by the start of
September. The date for the Dick Doyle Memorial Competition has been set for
the 12th of September, this annual event is open to W.C.A.C.T.A.A members
only. Carrigavantry is fishing well at the moment, there are plenty of fish to be
caught but it can be difficult as always in these dog days. Currently
Damsels by day are the main hatch and Sedges at night.

The holes in the road have been filled and surfacing will be completed when heavy machines and trucks are finished on the lakeside.

Waterford City & County Trout Anglers Association welcomes the beginning
of the new season on March 1st. Knockaderry and Carrigavantry Reservoirs have
been stocked with excellent quality fish and boats are launched so everything is
ready for opening day. We are proud to announce the commencement of a major
development project at Carrigavantry. This will include secure and safe docking
for anglers and will be wheelchair accessible. A Wheelyboat will be included so
that disabled anglers may enjoy their fishing in comfort and safety. We regret
that some inconvenience may be caused during construction work, but we firmly
believe that the long term benefits will far outweigh the short term
inconvenience. TIGHT LINES FOR 2010.
