Stephen Gibbons, Martin Byrne and Ronan Mullen, pike anglers who specialise in the fishing the mid to upper Shannon area, tried a new venue recently. The trio had a real red letter day with 17 pike caught and 12 of them in high teens and 3 pike over the 20lb mark.
The fish were all mainly caught on the bottom on all sorts of baits on the day. Unfortunately for the Midlands trio they report that the pike fishing has been very slow ever since though.
