Damien Gleeson tells us of a great win at the Boyle Angling Club competition.  The cold weather didn’t stop some lovely pike being caught.  He sends us this picture of Vincent Smith with a lovely coloured pike weighing in at 24lbs on the nose in the Easter pike competition in Boyle.

Damien tells us that the closest fish to this was a 19.5lb,  19.4lbs and an 18 pounder.   There were over 60 boats and it turns out they were the best boat and the over all winner of 2016.   Weather was harsh cold and wet but a great day had by all.
