They all enjoyed a hugely busy event sitting alongside great homegrown talent.
The atmosphere all weekend was amazing there was great excitement of industry experts meeting up and also welcoming new people to the event.
Visiting exhibition holders commented on the spectacular scenery of Lough Erne, the hospitable staff of the Killyhevlin and the warm Fermanagh welcome.
Local business Fishing Tackle & Bait had one of the biggest stands and local Francie McPhilips returned to speak to the audience.
The event was brought to Enniskillen with the support of Enniskillen BID, who returned in 2024, as the primary sponsor.
Noelle McAloon from BID said: "Fishing is an incredibly vital role to play in the economy of Enniskillen, of course, we wanted to support it again this year and we are already having conversations about 2025!
"The event is so impressive with the level of international interest."
Stevie Munn, event organiser thanked everyone for helping to make the event happen again, especially all the sponsors, the Killyhevlin Hotel, exhibitors, dressers and key speakers.
It was a large team effort to make it such a success. Every year the event focuses on encouraging young people with the sport.
With over one thousand people attending over Saturday and Sunday, it was a great weekend in Enniskillen.
