7Th Children’s Fishing Contest
On August 2, the seventh edition of the children’s fishing contest “without death” was held at the facilities of the Nautical Association of San Gregorio, organized by the Nautical Association of San Gregorio, the Sport Fishing Association of Rías Baixas and the Association of Traditional Rowing Boats. Boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 16 participated in the event.
The day was a great success, with a large turnout, a sunny morning and a very pleasant temperature.
It is a no-kill fishing competition, where the impact on the environment is minimal, since the catches are returned to the sea after being weighed, causing as little disturbance as possible. As always, the most caught fish was the mullet, an abundant species in our ports.
The children were always accompanied by an adult, which gave them a great opportunity to socialize, get to know each other and create memories of a day of fishing together.
Medals were awarded to all participants and prizes to those who obtained the largest total weight captured and the heaviest piece.
We look forward to next year for another contest and another beautiful day.
