Kevin Lyons of Melview Lodge reports on the coarse angling in the Longford area…
James Brown along with son Mark and friend Alan Toombs from the Midlands in the UK were over for their annual fishing holiday and used Melview Fishing Lodge as their base. Fishing a few lake venues produced Bream, Hybrids and plenty of Roach for them.
Prebaiting each night seemed to work for them until the Pike moved in and seemed to put the fish off feeding in any great numbers. Kevin said the guys put in the time and work and deserved a lot more but where ever they seemed to fish the Pike followed them.
I had the pleasure of having a fish on the canal with them on one of the days and the lads done well fishing the pole and catching Tench, Roach and Rudd, well done lads and thanks for your company all the best Kevin.
