Hide AdSpeaking at the launch, the Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, Councillor Paul Hamill said: “Our new angling guide will give keen fishermen all the information they need to explore our rivers and lakes. Our coastal location also means we can offer some sea fishing on Belfast Lough during the summer months. I also wish Straid Fishery the best of luck with the upcoming Commonwealth Fly Fishing Championships”.
