Northern Ireland Angling Festivals
Anglers World Holidays are proud to support the fishing competitions ran by Nick & Susan Seddon. Nick and his father Kenny are renowned match anglers with a wealth of experience fishing throughout Ireland. Based in Co Fermanagh Nick carefully selects the best fishing areas when pegging his matches, which always attract a full complement of anglers. You only have to look at the weights per angler per day to understand why. Nicks events consistently produce some of the highest average weights of any match event.
Upcoming competitions include the Fermanagh Feeder Classic and the Erne Lakeland Cup.
These popular events, fished in September will book up early, so call for further details.
These two competitions each have a Facebook group page - see the links below:

Northern Ireland Rod Licences
From April 2016, anglers will no longer get a paper rod licence or permit. Instead, they will get an electronic record (e-record) with a unique reference number. The new system will work out what type of licence or permit is needed.
