We used to fish there the day after, as you knew it would have been well stocked for the competition ! Cheers. When he was manager at Sheffield Wednesday he lived on our shoot at Worsbrough Hall. He had a small trout pool constructed by damming a stream and excavating around it. Just so he could relax and have a bit of fly-fishing away from the public. I'll bet he loved his time in Ireland. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not into fishing at all but a few of my pals are . Including a lad who was born with a few disabilities. Jack charlton paid for them all to have a week on the bank there When he seen them signing in . this was about 94ish Always liked the man Before and after that ! He is a legend in Ireland. His bro was nothing compared to him. We even have a football song about him. Don’t know how much he like his own country men after 1995 though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shovel leaner 6,851 Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 I was in Ireland fishing Loch Conn and had a day on the ridge pool in Ballina , a guy started talking to me from the bank , but I’d just had a take and was busy recasting and stripping back . He asked me what fly I was using , and I answered him but didn’t look at him . He wished me tight lines and walked off . A mate told me afterwards that it was Jack Charlton , now I wouldn’t have cared about any other person but to me he is a legend, I loved watching Jacks game and respect his sporting achievements . I really regret not having seen him properly and said hello . RIP Jack 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
