Michals Fishing Tackle Shop in Portlaoise held it’s open Pike fishing competition on Templemore Town Park Lake yesterday. The weather was good and the turnout reasonable. The pike however had different ideas and didn’t play ball. Never the less Kozakiewiez Marcin did manage to catch 3 pike to win him first place. Jimmy Devanney took second and Radoslav Bochnan third.
