Baltimore Deep Sea Angling Festival

Southwest Ireland's oldest sea angling competition, run every year since 1967. Four days' exciting fishing in the fish-rich waters off Baltimore, Co Cork.

The Baltimore Deep Sea Angling Festival, South West Ireland's oldest sea angling competition, is noted for exciting fishing and great company. Situated in the heart of the famous fishing grounds of West Cork, Baltimore has played host to this annual event for nearly 50 years. The four day competition has an international flavour and usually attracts around 70 anglers from around Ireland and abroad

Sad sad news of the passing of a dear friend and fellow angler, Bill Davidson, one of the best and keenest supporters of Baltimore angling festival. Bill was outright winner twice, in 2010 and 2012, and came close on several more occasions. He will be sorely missed not only for his angling skill but also for the ready wit thinly concealed behind that gruff Scottish exterior. Both Bill and Yvonne have contributed so much to the festival over the years. Our thoughts go out to her and the family.

Farewell, Bill. The last weekend in August will never seem quite the same without you.
