Mull of Galloway Sea Angling Festival 2018


The inaugural Mull of Galloway Sea Angling Festival, supported by Glasgow Angling Centre, took place over the weekend of the 25th and 26th August.

Unfortunately the weather forecast was not good for the Sunday so the event was extended on Saturday, increasing fishing time to 10 hours. 34 boats participated with 81 anglers catching 36 species, with the winning boat "Mako Wish" from Coatbridge landing 24 species.

Selection of Prizes
Tim Macpherson the publisher and editor of Salt Water Boat Angling also took part in the event and there is a 4 page article planned for the next edition.

The festival was a great success with excellent feedback, and booking enquiries for next year are already on the increase.

Supported by Glasgow Angling Centre
Les Weller of Mull of Galloway Sea Angling Festival Committee was very grateful to Glasgow Angling for going the extra mile by providing prizes, gift vouchers, and a varied selection of sea fishing tackle, including rods, reels, line and various other items of fishing tackle.

We would like to congratulate Les and the team, as well as all the anglers who participated and look forward to next year's event.
