Young Ben Nixon, Dromore tried his hand at fly fishing for the first time and ended up catching 10 trout on a Orange Blob while brothers Andrew and David Rea from Banbridge released 16 trout between them fishing Buzzers and Blobs.
Jay Pinion was fishing Blobs on a floating line to release 5 trout. The Main Lake is fishing well in the evenings to a Dry Sedge with Sam Alexander, Banbridge, landing 12 trout in a couple of hours from the jetty, with some nice trout around the 4/6lbs mark.
The next competition is the annual All Night Competition & BBQ on both lakes this Saturday 18 June. The competition runs from 7pm to 7am and always proves to be a good nights craic.
