Chris Barry of Go Fishing Ireland was in touch to let us know about a recent guiding trip…
The Terry family from Seville in Spain enjoyed an excellent day’s pike fishing in the Boyne Valley region recently. Three generations of the family teamed up with Chris Barry to learn about freshwater fishing in Ireland.
The teenage boys – Carlo, Yago and their cousin Bosco had their first taste of fishing in an Irish lake, and all caught some nice pike to 90cms on lures over deeper water.
But top honours for the day went to the youngest member of the group, 9-year-old Anita. During the afternoon, she hooked a large and powerful fish. At 102cms this was the largest fish of the day and almost as big as herself!
Her Mum helped her lift the big fish off the mat for a quick photo before we released it to swim off into deep water. This was her first ever fish. Quite an achievement. Well done Anita!
