Kevin Lyons reports again from Longford, where he hosted some Belgian clients who enjoyed their trip.

JP and friend Alain from Belgium were here once again for their first trip of three booked for 2025, they managed a total of 74 pike for the week. There was also an unexpected bonus for Alain while fishing for pike, a nice trout and his first in Ireland. Kevin said , “Well done guys, and we look forward to welcoming them back in August for both some coarse and pike fishing. Thanks again guys, see you later in the year.”
