 The Irish Ladies Flyfishing Association is a 'hands on' association, run by members for members, and we strive to encourage ladies to participate and enjoy the sport of fly fishing.  Our members are encouraged to organise and take part in competitions and social events throughout the year.

Our International team took part in the 4-country international in Scotland in May 2022 and credited themselves well with a 3rd place finish in extremely tough fishing conditions.  Star of the day was Ann Kerrin, who was Irish Top Rod and won Overall Top Rod in the competition, winning the Brown Bowl trophy.  Well Done Ann, our heartiest congratulations!

Congratulations to our member, Dorrie Gibbons, who organised and ran a most successful competition 'Cast a Line for Autism and Guide Dogs', held on both Lough Corrib and Lough Mask on Saturday 23rd July 2022'.  71 Anglers took part, the weather held good and a great time was had by all, with a splendid selection of prizes sponsored and donated by local businesses, anglers and well wishers, and over €5,000 raised for the two charities, Autism and Guide Dogs for the Blind.  Congratulations to John Deasy who won the competition for the heaviest bag with 3 fish, and also for winning the prize for the heaviest fish.  Congratulations to Mary Muller for the Top Lady trophy with 1 fish of 1.75 lbs.  Well done Dorrie on such brilliant organisation and for supporting such worthy causes.
