Chris Scally from FishTales was in touch to tell us about his recent guiding trips on Lough Ree. Earlier in the week he enjoyed a nice day on the boat with clients Zinny and Sam. The weather was awkward to say the least, but they persevered and the trio managed 8 pike to the boat with many missed takes. The lads are learning the trade of angling and will be back again for a winter session. Zinny did land a nice 90cm pike in the last hour of fishing to make the day a memorable one.
Later in the week was another great day on the water with Larry and his brother Anthony. Just as the tea was being poured, bang! – not one, but two rods bent in half for a double hook up for the 2 brothers! Great memories for the lads to take home. Conditions weren’t great but the guys still managed a nice few pike with another 7 fish to the boat – the biggest being just over the 90cm mark. One of the pike actually took the lure as soon as it hit the water ..it must have fell on his head! What a cast!
