Kevin Lyons of Melview Lodge in Longford reports the successes of first time visitor Diego Scapazzoni from Italy…
Diego Scapazzoni from Milan Italy was over for his first ever time to Ireland for his Pike fishing holiday, and decided to stay with Kevin and Jane at Melview Fishing Lodge in Longford. The morning of his first day started with a few smaller Pike and then the size of the Pike started to improve up to 75 to 80cm.
The pike then started to increase in size as the week continued. Pike to 90cm + started to come to the boat and then Diego bent into a cracking 102cm which was now his personal best. Diego commented that Ireland was a beautiful country with great Pike fishing and that he had enjoyed his stay here very much and it would be a trip he would remember for a long time and hopes to return next year.
It was a pleasure to guide and fish with Diego and we had a great time while out fishing together. Thank you Diego and we look forward to welcoming you back to Ireland, (Grazie Diego e non vediamo l’ora di darti il benvenuto in Irlanda ).
All fish returned unharmed.
