The senior competition will take place over the weekend of Saturday 06 and Sunday 07 August with the junior event on Sunday 14 August. The events, which will see the best senior and junior match anglers from Scotland, Wales and Ireland compete for the title of Celtic Cup Champions, provide a unique opportunity for the public to come along and support the teams as well as finding out how to get involved in the sport.
This year the SFCA will have coaches on site on all of the days to answer angling related questions and also to provide the chance for youngsters to try fishing for the first time and, hopefully, to catch their first fish.
SFCA Chairman Gus Brindle said:
“We hope that this event will be a real showcase for the sport of coarse angling in Scotland. The profile of the senior team was raised hugely following the recent televised Fish O Mania Home International on SkySports but we still need to do more to raise awareness of opportunities that exist up here in Scotland.”
Magiscroft Fisheries has an on site’ café with disabled access and facilities and all details are available on the fishery website.
