Educational Conservation Leaflet

The Irish Federation of Pike Angling Clubs wishes to announce the publication of an educational 'pike angling conservation leaflet'. It is our hope that information contained within the leaflet, will provide experienced and inexperienced anglers with a clear understanding of issues surrounding the welfare of pike. Information on unhooking and handling, appropriate tackle, the Regional Fisheries Boards and the current pike angling legislation are included.

30,000 leaflets will receive wide distribution to anglers through numerous avenues such as angling magazines, tourist accommodation providers, tackle shops and the 'Angling Ireland' angling show in Swords on the 17th/18th of February.

The Irish Federation of Pike Angling Clubs clearly recognise that education is a responsibility that we all share and as such we take our role seriously in an Ireland that sees increasing pressure on our angling resource. Please feel free to print off the attached leaflet.
