SUMMARY:The Helm Skate Festival 
DESCRIPTION:The Helm Skate Festival is one of the largest fishing events of it’s kind in the world and is the biggest in Western Europe. The festival began nineteen years ago when groups of anglers got together each with the aim of the catching the largest Skate. \n \nThe festival has evolved from a small two boat friendly competition to one that skippers from all along the Galway/Mayo coastlines with over one hundred anglers with the aim of promoting the conservation of Skate within the waters of Clew Bay and further out into the Atlantic Ocean. \nThe Skate\, a kind of fish that belongs to the Common Ray family was once a struggling species within the realms of Clew Bay and The Helm is just one of the many agencies throughout Ireland helping to bring back their revival. \nThe Skate Festival will be going into it’s nineteenth year this year and will be taking place in October 5th and 6th 2013. If you are an angler and wish to participate in one of the biggest fishing events of 2013\, then get in touch with Vinny or Shane in The Helm to secure your place as quickly as possible. Unfortunately\, the interest in the festival exceeds capacity every year as we have as many boats secured for the weekend as possible. \n
