Cappoquin Salmon and Trout Anglers' Association has recently commenced work on its long-term development for the
river. The fishery will be made more accessible by providing the
following:
|
|
| *85 additional fishing stands and locations *4 instream deflectors *37 more stiles*Disabled angler access at Cappoquin currently in development *5 new safe parking areas *2 new bank protection areas *plus more signage and printed promotional material
|
|
This is an important development project and will cost in excess of £200,000 to complete. Partial funding has been secured under the EU- sponsored
Tourism Angling Measure Programme Cappoquin Salmon and Trout Anglers' Association has the immense task of raising the balance. At present the Association has a major fund-raising and sponsorship campaign under way. We need your help to carry this significant Community Development through to completion and thus make Cappoquin a leading centre for angling. |
