Dad Edward and daughter Emma, along with mum Caroline, were up in Longford for a long weekend for a spot of relaxation and fishing at Melview Fishing Lodge with host Kevin Lyons. On the day of arrival, we had a look at some venues, and when we decided which one was going to be comfortable for Mum Caroline to sit and watch, that was going to be the one for the morning.
It was decided that no prebaiting was going to take place, and they were going to fish it cold; fishing using various hook baits, they managed to catch some lovely tench and some small hybrids and roach.
Kevin said it was a good, enjoyable weekend for everyone, and I think it’s on the cards that Edward and daughter Emma may be thinking about giving the winter pike fishing a go in February, so let’s hope so. Thank you once again for a great weekend.
ALL FISH RETURNED UNHARMED.
