A fairly Productive Year

This post has the potential to be almost a novel but I think I will keep it short just to give an insight on the season I have had.

The number one highlight would be catching 51 different species in 2014 Irish Kayak Angling Species Hunt. The list is pretty comprehensive but I added a slide show gallery with all of them. Some fish I had never caught before and I can safely say that I had never caught over 50% of the species ever before. So I was very happy with my tally. A Lot of effort went into it and I set myself a goal at the beginning of the season that I would Reach 50.

Other highlights of the year would have to be the times spent on the water with my father. Although we don’t agree on whats the best technique on somedays, I am still glad that I can share days out on the water with him. He is my inspiration for all my fishing. The best guide anyone could ever hope for. I just don’t know about that hat…..

I have met new faces this year which was due to meeting up at arranged fishing days. Spent numerous hours fishing and having a good time with people that are  enjoying this sport as much as I do.

Finally I have been commended for my years fishing by being invited to fish for the Bantry Bay Canoes Pro Team. Check out their store in the links page or click the image below.
