Chris Scally of Fish Tales on Lough Ree has had another successful day afloat, this time he had the pleasure of guiding Charlie and Tom aboard his newly wrapped boat, Lillie. Charlie and Tom are only starting out in the fishing game, but what a day it was for them.
Chris has never met a young man like Tom, who was that was so enthusiastic about fishing it was brilliant to see. Not only did Tom know the names of the lures Chris showed him, he even knew the weights and sizes – crazy level of knowledge for a young beginner! Chris was impressed to say the least!
During the day’s fishing, the guys had lots of fish to the boat, the biggest being in the high 90s for Charlie – only 2cm off the magical metre mark. Tom had a high ninety as well, with many more in the 80cm and 70 cm mark and lots of pike thrashing at the lures but not connecting.
The guys did really well and Chris is already looking forward to them joining him for a winter trip in the coming months.
