LM Byrne Cup fished Saturday 28th May on Lough Lene with 22 members competing. Bright and warm conditions meant that most success was with dries. Top position with a fish of 5.8 lbs went to Fran Nugent. Justin Clarke was pipped into second place with a fish of 5.625 lbs. Third place was Declan Mckibben with a fish of 4.735 lbs. Special weight prize went to Paul Dunne. A great day out for DTAA’s second competition of the season. Huge thanks to competition Secretary Tom Hipwell and Gerry Heaslip (boat manager) for organising a great event. It was great to see some new members and an intermediate (18-25) member taking part.

Tight lines and looking forward to the Anna Livia river competition next.thanks too to Tommy Fagan for accommodating us again this year.
