ESB Angling Club – Carp Fishing

Our first coarse competition of the year is planned for Toomans (Co. Leitrim) on April 24th. Toomans is probably the best carp fishery in Ireland and a favourite for the club https://www.facebook.com/ToomanFishery/timeline.

Despite the unseasonal cold weather, competition results are still good in Toomans with typically 40-80lbs needed to win.

Costs have yet to be confirmed but are likely to be ?25 per person. There are full tackle facilities at Toomans and as always there will be lots of experience on hand for less experienced anglers or complete novices.

If anyone is interested in this event or other ESB Angling Club events please contact Club Secretary, Peter O’Hagan on 087 9815904.
