Tomi Kurman from the Corrib Predator guiding team reports on an improvement in pike angling. After the recent hot spell with high water temps ended, the water temp went down to 16 degrees, and pike became more active. They are happily taking lures and flies, especially in the mornings.

Maciej Krajewski with a fine pike of 117.5cm, that weighed 30lbs 9oz, landed on Lough Corrib, June 2013. The fish was carefully released after the photograph.

Pike fishing has been very good recently with many fish over 20 lbs caught from the start of June. The best fish was landed on the 19th of June, when client Maciej Krajewski, hooked a monster pike of 30lbs 9oz, which measured 117.5cm! Maciej wins Catch of the Week for this beautiful fish. The pike was caught on one of Tomi’s home-made lures, and after a few photos she was carefully released to fight another day. The same day they had several more fish, mostly mid-doubles and one more fish at just over 20lbs.
