Kevin Lyons of Melview Lodge reports on the angling achievements of his guests:

Regular Belgium anglers Jean-Pierre and son Nick were here once again for a spot of Pike fishing, this time J.P invited his other son Elliot to join them. For Elliot it was his first time fishing in Ireland. Kevin said the guys caught a total of 41 Pike to 104cm and some very nice Perch on lures.

But it was first time Lucky for Elliot who had the biggest fish of the week at 104cm, most were tempted by trolling lures with a few caught on dead bait roach. Well done guys, see you in September.
