Kildare fishers and youth groups encouraged to apply for competiton

Inland Fisheries Ireland has launched a Fish & Film competition to encourage young people to spread the word about fishing.

Junior fishing clubs, youth clubs, projects and centres in Kildare are invited to apply to the competition by taking film footage of their fishing adventures and promoting it online.

The Fish & Film competition will see Kildare entrants film a fishing trip and include fun interviews on what angling means to them.

The films will be youth led in content and production with all junior anglers up to and including the age of 18 eligible to apply.

All films submitted to Inland Fisheries Ireland will be uploaded onto the organisation’s YouTube channel and the public’s views on each film will count as votes!

The top three groups with the most views on their film entry will go forward to a junior fishing competition which includes a free day’s fishing for all.

The overall winner of the Fish & Film Competition will receive a €1,000 fishing tackle voucher for their club with the two runners up winning a €250 voucher.

The closing date for applications to Fish & Film is Friday, 14th of July 2017.
