Fishing is in the blood for the De Bruijn family and when they get the chance the brothers go angling.
Ray de Bruijn was in touch to report that between 29th October and 2nd November 2016, the 4 brothers went on a family annual fishing competition called GoneFishing ‘de Bruijn” in which approx. 30 (Thirty) Pike were caught on the Cloonfree Lake on a small boat and with the biggest Pike weighing in at 14,5lbs which was caught by Jan de Bruijn using a 3D Trolling Lures by Savage Gear. (See picture below)
The brothers also caught a 12lbs and 9lbs Pike amongst the 30 Pike caught. (More info: http://gonefishing.at/fishing-trips/fishing-ireland/2016-cloonfree/)
It was a catch and release competition and no Pike were taken, killed or eaten.
