Kevin Lyons of Melview Fishing Lodge reports…
UK anglers Phil, Nigel and Graham were over once again to Melview Fishing Lodge hoping to target some bream fishing. The guys who have been a few times before know what it takes to fish in the large open Loughs. The water levels on their arrival were very high but they were straight out preparing and prebaiting never the less. The roach and small hybrids moved in on the bait overnight and this was pretty much how it was for the week with daily combined weights of between 80lb to 90lb every day.
A few bream and big hybrids turned up but not in any great numbers and I think this was due to the conditions and some pike moving into the swims over the course of the week. Nevertheless, some nice fish caught during their week’s stay and plenty of laughs along the way, thanks guys and always a pleasure.
