Erne System: Pike Classic Takes Place This Weekend
Waterways Ireland advises masters of vessels and waterways users on the Erne System that the Erne Pike Classic will take place this weekend from Friday 13 to Sunday 15 October.
Friday involves a shore-based angling competition. The Waterways Ireland jetties at the Round ‘O’ (outside moorings), Castle Museum, Henry Street and Sligo Road will be closed on Friday only to facilitate the shore-based element of the competition.
Saturday and Sunday will see round 100 boats operating between Devenish Island and Carrybridge for the water-based element of the angling competition.
During this time, the cross-border body for Ireland’s inland waterways advises all masters to proceed with additional caution in these areas and also to reduce their wash when encountering angling vessels.
