Allan Renaudin from France was over for annual fishing
holiday to Melview Lodge in Longford, and what a start to his holiday he had
taking 36 Pike to 14 lbs in the first three days on Lures. Kevin said, after
this the weather changed and we had to do some fishing from the bank. This
reduced the numbers of fish being caught but produced some cracking fish between
16lb and 24lb to static dead baits, then it was back to the boat. I decided that
due to the cold spell we would put the Lures away and change to dead baits, this
produced fish to 27lb 2oz and was solid action for four days with the fish
taking Herring, mackerel, Pollen and Roach dead baits. Next week I report on
Allan’s last weeks fishing, log on next week to see how he got
on.
All fish returned un-harmed to the water.
