Re: Lawyers Fishing Club
of Ireland
Dear Sir,
I refer to a letter from Mr. Frank
Wi ckham-Smi t h, Solicitor, of
Southgate, England which was
published in the Law Society
Gazette
in the Republic of Ireland
in August 1988 advising of the
existence of the Lawyers Fishing
Club in England, Scotland and
Wales which comprises Solicitors,
Barristers, Apprentices and Bar
Students. Mr. Wickham-Smith
wished to enquire if the professions
in Ireland would form such a
Society here with a view to arrang-
ing sporting contacts between the
professions in these islands.
There has been a solid indication
of interest in the intervening period
and I am confident that there will
be even more.
Therefore, it is my pleasure to
propose that the Lawyers Fishing
Club of Ireland be formed by ladies
and gentlemen of the Solicitors and
Barristers professions (including
apprentices and bar students) in
the Republic of Ireland and in
Northern Ireland for the purposes of
promoting fellowship within these
islands through a shared interest in
fishing. The emphasis would be on
game fishing and I would be
appreciative if anyone interested
would write to me.
One of the main tasks of the Club
would be to promote Annual
Matches alternating be tween
venues in Ireland and Britain. Mr.
Wickham-Smith has kindly asked if
a group of lawyers from Ireland
would go to England for a friendly
match this year, probably in
September. Please also indicate if
you would wish to participate in
this event.
I await responses and I hope to
be able to arrange an inaugural
meeting in due course.
Yours faithfully,
ADRIAN P. O'GORMAN
