Good news for Inniscarra - press release


Inniscarra, Co. Cork to host the World Feeder Championships 2014 November 15th, 2013 | by Nancy Hearne Jack Tisdall of the National Coarse Fishing Federation of Ireland NCFFI writes:

It has just been confirmed to me that, finally, the funding has been granted for the work to go ahead on access works for Inniscarra, Co. Cork in order to host the World Feeder Championships 2014. When the works are completed on this project we will see for the first time in Ireland’s history a World Championship coarse angling venue to rival the best in the World. There will be over 200 unbroken pegs which will also mean that we can bid for more World and European events into the future thus creating a venue along the lines of what Rugby and Football have with the Aviva Stadium. We would like to give our sincerest thanks to everyone who made this happen as at times there had to be much consultation and negotiation along with some interference from others outside this Federation. We would like to thank are very own Tommy Lawton and Der Casey who were invaluable in this process and never gave in. We would also like to thank the members of the local community group who supported the NCFFI every step of the way. Much thanks also goes to the local TD’s and Councillors along with the various Minsters and their departments. This event would not be possible without the support of Inland Fisheries Ireland and Cork County Council. NCFFI

If anyone reading this has ever been to Inniscarra Lake Co. Cork you will be aware of the access problems. The news release from the National Coarse Fishing Federation of Ireland is fantastic news, its a fab venue.
