Visiting anglers from distant shores got to grips with some early-season trout fishing on the lakes of the Boyne Valley region.

Jaden and his wife Regina, recently arrived from Singapore, had never fished in Ireland before and were keen to learn how to catch our native species. They teamed up with Chris Barry of GoFishing Ireland.

Despite difficult high water conditions, Jaden hooked and landed a lovely 48cm brown trout. Regina also caught some nice fish too. They’re now hooked on fishing in Ireland and looking forward to trying some salmon fishing.

Arriving from the other side of the globe, Kyle and Susan from Florida, USA bore the brunt of some inhospitable March weather, but Kyle still managed to catch his first-ever Irish brown trout. He landed a few nice pike as well on the same trip, which more than made up for the drenching!

March can be tough going on an Irish lough but when that elusive first trout finally comes along, the clouds are quickly forgotten.
